Anthology of Monsters released on unsuspecting public!
After an eight-plus year run of several small-press collectives and solo projects, Toby Craig challenged his comic-friends with a request for some monster inspired tales. The results are finally here. Seven stories, each with their own varied takes on the monster theme.
Giant monster smack-downs, law and order on a different spatial plane, musings of the walking dead, bible-beasts from the deep, chatty inner demons, monsters under the bed, and things that go bump in the nightlife.
Monster Engine! edited by Toby Craig. Featuring work by Pedro Boyd, Brian Canny, Peter Conrad, Toby Craig, Jim Rugg, Dalton Webb, Todd Webb, and Tom Williams.
64 pages; $6.00; ISBN: 0-9748513-0-2; Available February 2004.

About the Contributors
Pedro Boyd, a permanent fixture of painting studios, has cranked out his fair share of comics for the web and in his own mini-comics. Examples of his work can be found on the
ithinkican.com website.
Brian Canny is a writer living in Dallas, TX where his unique grasp of the written word actually makes him some money, as opposed to his infrequent collaborations in
Engine!.
Peter Conrad is an artist, writer, and illustrator in Northern California. His comics appear in numerous anthologies, a few newspapers, and movie screens in Silicon Valley.
Toby Craig is a crackpot self-publisher living in Texas. He continues to keep an out-of-focus watch on the intangible and weird with the continued publication of his
Engine! books.
Jim Rugg's comics have appeared in a few anthologies and mini-comics. He currently spends his free time doing a book called
Street Angel from Slave Labor.
Dalton Webb has created several comic strips, editorial cartoons, illustrations, and comic stories. He studied studio arts and graphic design in Texas before relocating to Seattle. Despite being a life long Texan, he does not have an accent. In addition to his mini-comic,
The One Regret, his work has also appeared in the
Vancouver Special,
Moxie, and
Engine!
Todd Webb is one of those fortunate few that get to draw comics all day long. When not drawing he's making music with his band 'Rangeboy' or goofing off. His book
The Goldfish and Bob was very well received and his cartoon journal can be seen every week on his website.
Tom Williams was established 1974. Situated in Columbus, Ohio. C.C.A.D. grad. 1997 (b.f.a.) continues to cartoon and do the occasional illustration/design gig. His books include
