A Mangled Crossover…

We inturrupt our regularly scheduled TOTAL CHAOS to bring you something a little different! Above, you will notice that instead of a regular guest strip, we’ve got this weeks installment of Will Rodriguez’s MANGLED STARE! The hero of Will’s comic, The Mighty Mangler is also a recurring character in THIS very strip, and occasionally calls upon Bernard to babysit his kids.

It’s been a while since Bernard has been tasked with watching the Mangulario kids, but RECENT EVENTS over in Will Rodriguez’s “MANGLED STARE” have forced the burrito-loving hero to call upon the babysitting skills of our own Mr. Brooks and Company. Check out “MANGLED STARE” for the whole story AND a cameo by Bernard that will lead directly into next week’s strips right here!

Dropping off or picking up?

Mimo Mangulario is a devoted husband and loving father of three. He’s ALSO a part-time superhero known as the MIGHTY MANGLER and the star of the online comic, “MANGLED STARE” by Will Rodriguez!

Many moons ago, back when Dandy and Bernard became super heroes of their own, they teamed up with the Mangler to help fend off an ALIEN INVASION! It wasn’t long afterwards that the Mangler needed a babysitter and remembered the one-time Cosmic hero, “Kid Cosmic” and his pre-teen alter-ego, Bernard!

Bernard quickly became the Mangler’s “Go To” babysitter, and remains so to this day. (Thanks to CYPO in the forums for compiling this link list for me.)

He still goes to School?

Yes, Bernard DOES still go to school. Of course, only when it’s problematic to the plot in general. I’m a sadistic cartoonist that way. I’d also like to remind you all to check out the online comic, “MANGLED STARE” by Will Rodriguez.

For your reference, here’s some quick links to the Mangler’s history in THIS comic:

Define: “Handle”

I really hate exposition, but the layout of this storyline requires Bernard to essentially say “Mr. Mangulario left his kids with me to baby-sit.” in pretty much every strip. It’s irritating to write around, but essential to keep all of you readers updated on the premise.
