MrGranger
I think this deserves a new thread. What do you guys think? That way we can all get a sneak peek at each other's entries in one easy-to-see spot.

Why not just use this thread?

We wouldn't want DJ to accidentally get a sneak peak of comics he many end up judging :p If it's in its own thread, that possibility will be limited. Besides, all the COOL KIDS are starting new threads.

So, if you entered and want to show off your pitch, post here. :D

Guess I'll tip my hand.

Pitch Sheet: Ben’s Book of Banned Beasts
Characters:
Ben Vasquez: Cowardly, paranoid, and an insomniac… and he’s only eight years old to boot. The world is a scary place when you’re 8, but for Ben, it’s amazing he doesn’t have a heart attack on a daily basis while taking on the various ghouls, beasts and monsters of the ancient book.

Erin Simmons: Erin is the toughest girl in the world, and Ben’s best friend and won’t hesitate to beat up any creatures from the book. She has a rather thorny personality and has an addiction to hair metal. She also may have a crush on Ben.

Karma Chameleon: One of several residents in the book, Karma assists Ben and Erin in rounding up the missing pages. However much to his chagrin, the kid’s behavior influences his appearance, form and shape.

Naturally, there are other characters, such as Ben’s older Goth brother and Erin’s Secret Government Agent Father who is trying to uncover the source of all these creatures.

Concept: A magic book of Banned Beasts falls from the sky and nearly crushes Ben who is out playing with his friend Erin. Ben decides to keep the book to prop up a table in his room, but it turns out the book is “leaking” and that monsters and mythical creatures are escaping from it, the first being the Karma Chameleon. He reveals that Ben is now the owner of the book and is responsible for getting the creatures back into it, and offers to help in exchange for not being forced to go back in himself.
The remainder of the series focuses on Ben and Erin’s attempts at putting the creatures back, while keeping the book secret. Making that difficult is Ben’s terrifying Goth brother, and Erin’s Secret-Agent Father who is investigating these paranormal activities in the town. Further complicating this goal is the nature and variety of the creatures, ranging from supernatural beasts to legendary creatures and even deities.
Unfortunately for Karma, he is tied into the behavior of the children, so when they are bad, he tends to take on a more menacing form, his form of transformation is often tied into certain aspects of their behavior as well, such as gluttony, if one of the children exhibits this, he begins to gain weight and a bad attitude as a result. As a result he acts as a guide to the children as well as a tool in regards to restoring the creatures of the book.

Storylines would often reflect the acquisition of a certain creature, or the trio’s attempts at keeping these things a secret, and often showcase the larger effect of the beasts in the town. Some of the monsters range from Japanese Kappa, to a gigantic Cyclopes, a Cthuluoid sewer-lurker and even friendly Unicorns and the majestic Roc. Much of the humor is the result of these children trying to capture, outsmart or beat up these rather intimidating beasts, or even use these creatures for their own childlike purposes, such as intimidating the school-bully with a hoard of Goblins, or getting out of school by faking a fever using a dragon to project heat.


Character lineup.


A page I sent. The giant monster in question is actually based on Ainu folklore, I forgot it's name however.


Various doodles of Karma.

Ideally, if I did win, this series would be kid-friendly, but not dumbed down like most kid-friendly comics out there, and would have several stories per issue. It would also be a bit educational because I would use different mythologies and folk-lore for plot-points.

So how about you guys?

Very cool hpkomic.

I'm thinking of posting the first few pages of my submissions. But here's part of the pitch for "Grey Shades".

And this is art from my second submission, "Gliese 581c". I partnered with Anna Wieszczyk for both of these.
.



I've actually finished the first 7-8 pages of each, if there are no objections I'll probably post here on DD.

Hey this is Alex posting under Joe's name. He mentioned this thread to me on the phone and so I'm gonna post our submission cause I'm proud of it and want to show it off! (even if only a few people ever look at this thread). From the other couple of posts I see here, I can already tell that this year's competition will be significantly tougher than last year's.

Hewey Donovan: Galactic Emperor

Introduction
For years Hewey Donovan, an average sixth-grade student living in Ohio, has dreamt of growing up to become Galactic Emperor. No one believed that he could achieve this imaginary title. That is, not until he was abducted by aliens! Now Hewey has a chance to prove that he has what it takes to achieve his dream. Comedy and sci-fi action ensue as the galaxy is forever changed in the hands of a twelve-year-old!

Plot Summary
As the story opens, Hewey Donovan and his classmate, Wendy Watson are abducted from the rooftop of their middle school by aliens! Hewey is able to turn the situation in his favor and commandeer his captor's ship for his own purposes.

Now supplied with a vessel, Hewey, sets off on a mission to start his empire. Accompanied by his skeptical classmate, Wendy, the ship's hot-headed captain, Kaldaran, the emotionally schizophrenic navigation android, Rose, and Chaar, the fierce assassin-turned-bodyguard, Hewey conquers dozens of alien civilizations through a combination of luck, Machiavellian tactics, and baseless assertions of authority.

As Hewey gets closer to conquering the entire galaxy, his list of enemies grows ever longer. Numerous opponents unite, resulting in the formation of a rebel group, the Anti Donovan Alliance, lead by his own anti-clone!

= I've edited out the next paragraph, which reveals the comic book's conclusion=
-Joe

Major Characters
Hewey Donovan: Since he first learned to talk, Hewey Donovan has proudly declared his destiny to become the Emperor of the entire galaxy. His determination to reach this goal is fueled by a desire to prove anyone who would question his self-given authority wrong. Hewey's greatest hero is Napoleon, but he's disappointed in the emperor's inability to "think big."

Wendy Watson: As the smartest kid in Hewey's class, Wendy considered his claims of galactic domination to be scientifically impossible. Now that she's stuck in a spaceship where faster than light travel, holographic simulations, and proton weaponry are normal, her assumptions of scientific possibility are quickly shattered. Wendy is the voice of reason in an insane universe.

Chaar: Once hired to assassinate Hewey, Chaar has since joined him as a bodyguard. Chaar is fiercely loyal to whoever happens to be offering the most money Fortunately, Hewey has made certain that he will always be the highest bidder.

Rose: As a navigation droid, Rose is responsible for plotting and executing courses for the ship. Once Hewey gained command of the ship, her programming and appearance were altered to suit aesthetics. Although very skilled, these specialized emotion modifications resulted in giving her a somewhat unpredictable personality.

Kaldaran: Once a respected captain of a warship, Kaldaran was demoted to commanding a civilian science vessel due to his refusal to respect the chain of command. He is very knowledgeable in the workings of the galaxy, but has a short fuse.

Well, I thought I'd plug our entry here, too... we welcome feedback, and even criticism, so long as we're not flamed...

How many people are as excited (and relieved) to have their entry in before the deadline as we are?

And as an aside, anybody willing to discuss their ideas for their pitch, on the chance Platinum and the judges deem them worthy of a trip to San Diego? I'm of two minds about it... don't want to give away too much of what we might have planned, but really hoping to share tips and ideas. What does everyone else think?

Anyway, here's the link to where we've posted the comic on DrunkDuck... hope you like!!

http://www.drunkduck.com/The_Ring_of_Auberon/

Are people posting their synopses here as well? I'd be glad to share ours... like I said, looking for feedback and just to chat with other folks who are hopeful entrants!!

Oh, I almost forgot, I wanted to say, the submissions I see up there look great! It's especially good to see the kid-friendly entries up there, and I like what I see of them. I know that I used to hate the fact that the kid comics available for my son were all too cutesie and silly for him to even be interested in!

Our entry isn't exactly kid-friendly, but it's not kid-unfriendly either. It's geared to young teen to adults, specifically the typical comic book/LOTR/Harry Potter/Wheel of Time geeks out there, like me. It isn't overly graphic, but it's not geared toward young kids as far as art style and whatnot.

And I forgot to give credit where credit is due: I'm Eric Jones, the writer and letterer, and the art for our entry was done by Erick Marquez.

I also forgot to post the image directly in the post, so... here it is:

All these great posts and no comments? Very well, I'll start!

HPKomic: Nice clean page. I've really liked what I've seen of Galactic Hub Serreven and would really like to see some of your work in print. Your concept seems like it would make a great transition into a TV show... sort of a lighthearted version of Death Note!

MrGranger: Very cool looking concept art. Do you have any page layouts or plot summaries?

EHJones: I like the intensity of this page and how the art really goes with it. I must admit, I'm reminded LOTR, here. But what good fantasy doesn't remind me of my favorite book? None!

As for our pitch. If we get to go, we'll probably have a fairly simple presentation. The concept itself is simple enough. We'll have a lot of concept art, I suppose, but we won't want to show only what needs to be shown to convey the concept.

HPK: Great colors. Especially when the monster comes out. Your action lines in the background are strong enough to invite the eye directly to the girl's attack, but not too strong that it flattens the image or draws away from where the attention should be. Also, the sketches have a great fluidity and natural motion to them. May I suggest more of that kind of feel in the final look? In other words, your finals are great, but they gain a little more rigidity to them when they're "inked," and it seems like it's done just for the sake of having it look finished. I say let your natural style show! Either way, I'll be keeping an eye on your work as a new fan!

MrGranger: Definitely post your stuff up. Those paintings made me immediately want to know what the stories are.

NoNeed: That story sounds REALLY fun. That monster has a very disgusting mouth (thingy).

McGranger: The art looks fantastic, but where's the story? I'd love to hear what your pitches are all about.

noneedforbushido: Your pitch sounds hilarious, and the characters all have a lot going for them from their descriptions alone. Visually, it's really solid and the characters emote really well, and the ships look extremely detailed, particularly the command consoles.

EHJones: A solid pitch, and I love the thick outlines in the style, with the almost watercolor quality of the internal elements.

It's nice to see the number of teams entering this so far, I've not had lucky finding people to work with, so kudos to you guys for finding help who are comitted to your pitches.

As for me, thanks for your comments guys, I was really nervous I was going to be blown away by the other contributors, but you guys seem to be liking what I've put forward. I do have some experience in print, I'm published monthly through Radio Comix, so I think I have an advantage when it comes to knowing when to meet a deadline. ;) As for lineart, I've not entirely nailed down what I'm searching for, but I'll keep your thoughts in mind mrkrinkle.

With any luck, we'll all be meeting up.

Geez guys, all of these look and sound super-awesome. It kind of makes me glad I didn't enter because I'd have felt totally outclassed! lol!

Well done guys, and this is gonna be a tough race. :D

Wow, guys. ^_^ When you're all in San Diego, someone take photos for the rest of us? :D

HPK- I like your concept. It's got a lot of room to explore and expand on these different monsters you've come up with. Your characters sound fun... kind of like Pippi Longstocking meets Ash from Pokemon meets Ed, Edd, and Eddy meets She Spies kind of thing. I don't feel qualified to comment on the art (I'm not an artist at all) other than to say it fits your concept really well, and I like it.

noneed- two comments here: First, a humorous sci-fi story with a clueless hero and a hot robot? I love it!
Second comment, yeah, our page is supposed to be reminiscent of LOTR... it's intentional (see synopsis below). Throughout our pages, I hope readers will draw parallels with LOTR, Wheel of Time, Belgariad, even Narnia and things like that.

mrgranger- Gliese 581c, wow, I love the concept art! It hearkens back to the old sci-fi magazines and early pulp books. I agree with everyone else... give us some story here! The images have me interested enough to want to know what they're about!

It's going to be a great showing this year for the contest. I can't wait til June 18!

OK, here's our synopsis:

Auberon, the Erl King. Titania, the Witch Queen. Puck, the trickster. Names that have been lost to the annals of time.

Long ago, the Faerie Host lived idyllic lives of merriment and commune with nature, ruled by Auberon, the Erl King. But Auberon’s bride, Titania, had dreams of power and dominion. Through dark and forbidden magic, Titania ensnared the minds and souls of many of the Faerie Host, transforming them at her whim and building an army to overthrow her husband. Her forces triumphed, stripping the Erl King of much of his arcane might. But Auberon was not to be defeated so easily. As Titania’s corrupted mages prepared to exile him to the limbo realm between here and nowhere, Auberon plucked a ring from his finger. Breathing the last of his waning magical energies into the ring, he cast it out in the desperate hope that it would be found by someone who could use the ring to free him from his prison and restore him to power. But the ring fell into the hands of humans, and for centuries, was lost to the Faerie.

Gus Stratmann is an average working stiff, a computer technician for a small advertising firm. Put upon by his co-workers, reviled by his peers, and ignored by everyone else, Gus is as miserable as a human being can be. His only escape is into the fantasy worlds of novels and comic books. But he isn’t prepared for what happens when he finds the Ring of Auberon.

After Gus finds the ring, his life begins to spiral out of control. It starts with a mind-trip to meet the Erl King, and to hear the story of the ring and its purpose. Even Gus, whose fantasy life is far more satisfying than his real one, can’t accept the reality of the ring.

But the attempts on his life begin almost immediately. Attempts that seem to Gus to have no rhyme or reason, as the Witch Queen sends her formidable agents to recover the ring and end its threat to her dominion forever.

Over the course of the story, Gus meets several characters, both commonplace and fantastic. Cassandra O’Neill, an enigmatic girl who seems to know all about what’s happening to our forlorn hero. Jeff Mabry, a burnout cop desperate to solve one big case. Puck, the only friend the Erl King has left among the Faerie Host. But despite these meetings, Gus still can’t accept the reality that is bearing down on him.

After repeated attacks on his life, Gus begins to lose his grip on sanity, and all of the bizarre events that are happening around him only serve to push him further over the edge. He slips further and further into a fantasy world of his own making. Gus becomes convinced that he’s the hero of an epic story, an amalgam of the stories that he’s loved for so many years. His mind completely unhinged, he is fired from his job, wanted by the police, and hiding out in the back alleys of the grimy city.

The story climaxes when Gus is pursued by nightmare creatures of the Faerie Host, led by Janovar, the Queen’s Second and Royal Consort. Gus convinces himself that he must destroy the ring, and determines to do so in the “fires of the deep”… or, rather, in the vats of molten metal in a local steel mill. Unfortunately, the ring refuses to come off. Gus is cornered by the Faerie Host, and desperately tries to remove the ring… finger and all!

What would happen if a typical fantasy/sci-fi fan were suddenly thrust into the type of story he loves? What would happen if you or I found a magical artifact that led us into peril and fantastic realms? Just ask Gus Stratmann.

Short time lurker and entraint in this year's version of the Challenge. Here's one of the two entries I uploaded.ALIEN HOUSE.





The typo in panel five was corrected prior to submission. :)

Hell yeah! That looks great!

Wow, these all look so amazing! I really want to read a few of them very badly, haha. Good luck to everybody, I'm sure you'll all do great.

Hi everyone, new to the site and am really amazed at the talent around here. I am mainly a writer myself and when my artist fell through at the last minute had to take the reigns and draw the sample myself. I couldn't let the opportunity to participate in the contest pass by without giving it a go.

Here is my entry:


[imageshack.us]

That Easter Island head guy is great.

How many of you were 100% sure you'd win BEFORE you saw all the other entries? I have a feeling that Platinum's first response this year is "WOW...these are a lot better than last years." Followed quickly by "Except for DJ's awesome winning bid...of course."

Well, I'm still hopeful about getting into the top 50 :)

I'll just have to wait to see if Alex and I get any further than that.

I am so terrified I won't make it.

Seriously, I'm worried.

I was damned sure I'd win this year until I saw other entries. Even ones that arent on this site. There are some awesome pages out there. You can see some of my art on my comic Ogre which isn't lettered. I have to stop being lazy about that, sorry.

Heres the pitch though:

The Concept: Grigoriy's life takes a turn for the worse when he is mistaken for one of the Trolls who attacked the US on September 11th.

Overview: OGRE is told in a stream of consciousness style narrative as Grigoriy sits in a bar, drinks too much and ponders his life. His thoughts bounce from his childhood to his adult life. When testosterone pumped youths come into the bar bathed with patriotism and bigotry they look for a scapegoat. The humans, who are gathered in memorial for those that died in the attacks on 9/11, spot Grigoriy sitting at the bar and take their anger out on him. Grigoriy gets into a fist fight with the leader of the small riot, the bar keeper calls the police and Grigoriy is blamed for the fight. The police charge him with "Monstrous threats" and as he sits in his jail cell Grigoriy realizes that confrontation can lead to self decimation. The progression of the story follows follows the life history of a man who hasn't been given much and tries to hold onto every bit of it but loses his dignity in the process.

Synopsis: On their wedding night, nearly 15 years ago, Grigoriy and his wife Dikranouhi fled their homeland so they could raise children in a world without racial persecution. They left behind their extended family knowing that Ogres were not safe to live in a country controlled by Troll extremists. The young couple found a place to live in Portland, OR., in the United States of America, a nation mostly populated by humans which boasts of its open arms towards immigrants.
Historical conflicts reinvent themselves on September 11th, 2001, when the nation was attacked by a group of MONSTERS who resent the human way of life. The lives of Grigoriy and his family have become frustrating in the wake of this horrible act.
Grigoriy sits and thinks about the life he has built from nearly nothing in this new land and the life he knew as a child. Grigoriy compares the lives his children have had in this new world with his impoverished one and wonders if the world of comfort has corrupted them.
As his self esteem reaches new lows, and the number of beer bottles on his table reach scary heights, a fellow patron picks a fight by insisting that Grigoriy is connected to the troll extremists who recently attacked the United States. Grigoriy is arrested and blamed for the fight, his punishment is light but from now on his permanent record shows that he is a known monster.
The story ends with Grigoriy in a small jail cell as he comes to the revelation that using force to try and change peoples minds is about as effective as using bleach to cure thirst. He sulks in prison and thinks of a way to explain the situation to his family. In the end Grigoriy is left feeling like absolute hell when he realizes that even though he fought to protect everything he had, he lost his dignity.

Extensions: Although Ogre is a self contained One Shot, Grigoriy and his family have many other stories to tell. Seda is required to study the Ogre Genocide of 1915 in her history class and as she learns about her people's violent history she finds evidence of a modern day genocide. Vartouhi struggles to fit into a world of humans at a young age and has to decide between embracing her heritage and ignoring it. Dikranouhi tries to keep her household from falling apart with a rebelling teenager, a child with emerging mental disorders and a husband who is in and out of jail.

Marketing: Ogre follows the tradition of Art Spiegelman's anthropomorphic classic Maus and Marjane Satrapi's Persepolis which resonate with those who have been the target of racial and spiritual persecution. Renzo Podesta's unique art will attract the more subversive comic readers. Due to the serious subject matter and some foul language Ogre is suggested for mature readers.

Robert, the pages you already have up have a lot of impact without needing any words. I can only assume that's a good sign :)

This is well worth a sticky!

Yay, we got a sticky!

Zerohour: So what's the background on your entry? As in, what exactly is the story about? Superhero, supervillain, god-like uberbeing? Shed some light...

RobertTidwell: I really want to see what happens with your pitch. The art I've seen looks just great, and the synopsis is more than a little intriguing. I would've been hesitant to try my hand at a social allegory, but I think you might have something strong there, and I want to see where you go with it.

SDulaney: God, that just looks fun! I can't wait to see more of it! One quick question. Who's thoughts are we following in the caption? On first read, I thought it was the lady ranger, but looking at it again, I think it's more likely the guy in glasses and loud shirt... yes?

MrGranger: I won't say I was sure we'd win before I saw the other entries... but I was guardedly hopeful that we'd make it into the top 50 and get a little exposure. I still am... I just think it's going to be a TOUGH sell now!

I hope some more people post their entries here... or else we're going to end up with a very small mutual admiration society. I want to see what EVERYONE is up to!! :-)

Thanks guys.

EHJones--Sorry about that meant to post the background for you guys.

Here is my synopsis:

Meet Aaron Thomas. Up until a few moments ago he was nothing more than an ordinary man. One that was feared around the world in the guise of Grendel. A wanted terrorist.
Murdering and assuming the identity of his dead twin brother, Adam. Aaron is setting out to take revenge on a world where he never really found his place. Aaron killed his brother to extract his power. A power that allowed his brother to help others as the hero Centurion.
The brothers were the product of a cutting edge procedure performed by their own parents. Scientists working in secret with the government on maximizing human potential. This procedure made a near god of Adam. Granting him extraordinary speed, strength and agility. As he matured he learned the ability to tune into the Earth's magnetic energies and control the magnetic energies within his own body to achieve flight. However it left Aaron a normal man, living in his brother's shadow.
Aaron, the older by two minutes, grew up feeling bitter and rejected by his own parents. He felt viewed by them as a failed experiment. Deciding to take an interest in science and his parent's work. Aaron hoped to find the cause of his brother's power and to harness it for himself.
Eventually Aaron quickly learned that no matter what he could not escape his brother's shadow. Aaron blew up the laboratory killing both his mother and father and faking his own death with a carefully placed cadaver. Going underground with the journals his parent's kept closely guarded of the procedure performed on their unborn children, Aaron continued their work.
Adam left alone in the world was taken in by the mysterious government official who oversaw the special projects his parent's were assigned to, Mark Howard. Mark wanted to keep a close eye on the young man. No matter how hard the parent's tried to hide Adam's abilities, Mark knew. Eventually the point came where he revealed this fact to Adam. Convincing Adam to come work for him and to serve his country under the guise of Centurion.
When Centurion debuted there was no mistaking his identity to Aaron. Who in turn became Grendel. Created in order to exact revenge on his brother Adam. These acts also served as tests so Aaron could study his brother's development more closely.
After years of escaping capture by Centurion, Aaron finally discovered the secret to Adam's powers. He finally found a way to become the man he should have been all those years ago. But in order to gain those abilities he would have to kill his brother. And Grendel did just that.
In the last horrifying moments of Adam's life it was revealed to him that his own flesh and blood was responsible for it all. The death of their parent's and so much suffering in the world.
Taking up the identity of Adam Thomas and Centurion. Aaron is setting out to make his presence known to the world. He is no longer hiding in his little brother's shadow. He has control.
But what Aaron does not realize is that now that he has the life he always wanted. Power, purpose, family. Will he become something he didn't expect.
Somewhere lost in this charade can Aaron find his humanity? Will the act ever become the reality? Can someone's true nature really change?
Can you every really atone for your sins?

...What the hell's a 'sticky'?

that means it "sticks" to the top of the page.

I came up with the a pitch for Tranny The Transexuals Transgendered Travels.

http://www.drunkduck.com/penis/index.php?p=213588 I posted the sample page already as a part of penis. I'll probably start releasing other pages from the "story" soon.

This is verbatim what I sent in, copied directly from notepad, spelling errors and all.

Written/Drawn by Matt Bojangles using flash 5 and my vivid imagination

COMIC NAME - TRANNY THE TRANSSEXUALS BIG DATE (although I am accpetable to alternative titles, but this one is my favorite)
Aletnate names: Transsexual Date Night, Personal Ad Tranny, Transgendered or Transexual (a refrence to Glen or Glenda, a LBGT movie), My Big Fat Best Friends Holiday Transexual Date That Lasted 10 Days (a refrence to romantic comedy films), again I am open to other names.

STORY SYNOPSIS - Tranny the Transsexual finds love, or at least they think they have! After placing an ad in a small press alternative lifestyle guns and ammo magazines personals, Tranny finds themself a mysterious phone call from a male suitor! Hilarity ensues as Tranny finds the horrors of dating!

OTHER DETAILS - I won't tell all the details of my story, but I will give away enough to properly pitch it to you fine folks at Platinum Studios. Tranny The Transsexual is a popular character from my webcomic series penis, which has a dedicated fan base that shows up to it everyday. Tranny being a popular character, I had written a story for them that would fit nicely into a one shot or possibly an anthology series with some of my other stories. Tranny is, as their name implies, a pre-op transsexual. They still have male sexual organs, but have taken hormones to grow a feminine chest. Tranny seems to continue to grow facial hair (as evidenced by his thick five o'clock shadow) as well as having bold chest hair. They wear a blonde wig, and green dress. If it doesn't look familiar, my art style hasn't conveyed Jennifer Lopez's memorable green dress that showed off far too much cleavage back in her Puff Daddy days. Tranny's first book length adventure is a fun romp in trashy bad taste. The lowbrow humor of the story hides a layer of personal accomplishment for the character. Tranny has actively tried to be an accepted member of modern society, but has failed misrebly everytime. They somehow always find their spirit to continue onward. The comic would be around 22-24 pages in length, and I could produce similar qaulity to the page above on my own, or if you want an outside artist to re-do my artwork, that would be acceptable by me. I don't draw backgrounds in my comics, because I want the reader to imagine a world behind the characters. They can fill the gaps themselves. Also the way I write, I often let out huge blocks of text in some panels, then I want to show off the emptyness of the void in another with no text.

Thankyou again for the opertuniyt to publish my work, Tranny is a fan favorite from my webcomic series that has run daily since 2005. I've attracted a rabbid fan base, and would make every attempt possible to attract new fans of my work. Thankyou Platinum Studios.

Signed,

Matt Bojangles
