It makes for amazing work with a good story and interesting characters that also combine sad moments with some hilarious jokes that set up perfectly for the following titles in the series. James Smart had his first break working with comic book companies when he was contracted by SLG to pen the “Bear” comic book. One immediate success goes unnoticed as those worthy stalwarts debate ways to get hapless Pig out of a giant pit before finding the ‘Tunnels’ the sweet simpleton used to get there in the first place…

Once the Great Woodland Bake-off inevitably culminates in ‘Cakes and Bruises’ Monkey use a superstrength serum unwisely. As his bones mend he has a Damascus moment: deducing that being a ‘Good Monkey’ might be less harmful. He gives nobility a go… but it too doesn’t end well…He loves to say that while he went to college to study art, he only did it so that he could have an excuse to draw animals with weird eyes. In addition to the colourful visuals, the series also features clever and witty writing. The humour is aimed at both children and adults, with plenty of silly jokes and pop culture references. The characters also have distinct personalities, with Bunny being the calm and sensible one, while Monkey is the brash and impulsive one. While Bunny vs Monkey is primarily a comedy series, it also has some heartwarming moments. The friendship between Bunny and Weenie is particularly touching, and there are a few moments where the characters have to work together to save the forest from an outside threat. He has also regularly published his popular “Looshkin” and “Bunny vs Monkey” stories in The Phoenix comic in addition to several children’s graphic novels. Similar to many artists, James Smart has been doing comics ever since he was old enough to hold a pencil and has never stopped. He was very fortunate that he was born to very supportive parents who early on realized that he was fascinated with comics. Meanwhile and maybe later, Bunny experiences ‘Mossy Mayhem’ when Skunky’s latest experiment escapes, even as Metal E.V.E ponders astral reality and rashly asks her friend to explain ‘Pig Science’…
