Luke Groundwalker: “I’m not M&M Kenobi. Sorry, I’m Luke Groundwalker. But I have a friend with a ship and I bet we can save her.”

Luke Groundwalker: “M&M Solo, I need your help!”

Tumblr media

Luke Groundwalker: “I bet you got in debt with Jabba the Peep.”

Back at the Death Breaker...
Darth Twizzler: “Tell me where the plans to the Death Breaker are.”

In space...
M&M Solo: “There’s a Pie Fighter!”
And then...
The Millennium Fondant shoots at the Pie Fighter.
Tumblr media
Page 18 (above)
Pow!
The Pie Fighter is destroyed.
Then they flew back.
The End.
The Candy Wars characters will return in Candy Wars: The Twizzlers Strike Back
A note from the author’s legal guardian who posts booksoffuncomics’ works:
When asked about choosing to make M&M Kenobi an off-screen character and avoiding the final battle at the Death Breaker, the author replied “Well, I just like Jabba a lot, so I was mainly focused on putting him in the story.”
Proof that each new generation approaches classic stories with new eyes.
While fully acknowledging the above, as a first-generation Star Wars fan, I'm compelled (sorry, can’t help it, pointing this stuff out is an automatic reflex that will only end when I’m dead) to say that Jabba only appears on screen in A New Hope from the Special Edition version forward and was not an on-screen character in the original version of the film, also in which HAN SHOOTS FIRST! For full details on the opinions of aggrieved, first-generation Star Wars fans, please see the documentary, The People vs. George Lucas.
Also, please note that booksoffuncomics is both approved of and laughed at me posting this afterword. They know I’ve been a grumpy Star Wars fan for decades and can’t talk about the films without pointing out... well, what I said above. Fortunately, booksoffuncomics knows their own mind, and has their own view of the world - just as it should be.

The Adventures of Bob the Burger
A new comic by 9-year-old creator booksoffuncomics. See more of their work at @booksoffuncomics​ on Tumblr or BooksOfFunComics on Archive of Our Own.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Page 1 (above)
Panel 1-1: Once upon a time there was an adventurer named Bob The Burger.
Panel 1-2: One day... “What’s that?” Bob asks.
Panel 1-3: “It’s a map!” 
Tumblr media
Page 2 (above)
Panel 2-1: But then...
Panel 2-2: X marks the spot on the treasure map. But to get to it, Bob must go from Burger Land through The Cave of Bats and the The Alligator River. (cue foreboding background music)
Tumblr media
Page 3 (above)
Panel 3-1: “And the map leads to buried treasure.”
Panel 3-2: “I’m going to follow the map and donate the treasure to charity.”
Panel 3-3: “But first, I’m going to bed.”
Panel 3-4: Bob getting a good night’s sleep (the key to success in all adventures)
Tumblr media
Page 4 (above)
Panel 4-1: The next morning...
Panel 4-2: “I’m up.”
Panel 4-3: And then he started his adventure.
Panel 4-4: “By-by, house.”
Tumblr media
Page 5 (above)
Panel 5-1: Soon, he came to the end of Burger Land (he stops just before a rickety bridge).
Panel 5-2: “That doesn’t look safe.”

Tumblr media
Page 6 (above)

Panel 7-3: “AAAAAh” Bob falls toward the fortuitously placed trampoline.
Tumblr media
Page 8 (above)
Bong - Bob bounces on the trampoline. He’s saved!
Note: At this point in the story, you might notice a similarity with BoosOfFunComic’s last comic, Sherlock Bacon 2. BooksOfFunComics appears to be fully embracing the Not the Fall That Kills You trope.
Tumblr media
Page 9 (above)

Panel 9-2: But then, Bob walks past a “Beware of bats” sign.

Panel 11-3: “I think I lost him.” Bob says.
Panel 11-4: But then...

Tumblr media
Page 13 (above)
Panel 13-1: Bob passes a “Treasure This Way” sign.
Panel 13-2: And so............................................................
Panel 13-3: Bob arrives at X marks the spot and retrieves a shovel from his back pocket.
Panel 13-4: Bob digs and digs and digs.
Tumblr media
Page 14 (above)
Panel 14-1: “I found it!”
Panel 14-2: Bob finds a pile of $90,000 bills. 
(wouldn’t it be nice if there were bills worth $90,000 each?)
Panel 14-3: Then he donated it all to charity. The end.
Which charity got the treasure, you ask? BooksOfFunComics is always concerned about homeless people and is particularly worried now, during the COVID-19 pandemic. If you feel inspired by Bob The Burger’s quest to find riches for charities that serve the homeless, please donate to the local charity of your choice.

Sherlock Bacon 2: Revenge of the Evil Vegan Dude
In the exciting followup to  Sherlock Bacon and the Hogs of Veganland, Sherlock Bacon and Egg Watson must face their nemesis, the Evil Vegan Dude. Will they prevail?
The Sherlock Bacon and Egg Watson series, and other works by 9-year-old creator booksoffuncomics’ are available on Tumblr @booksoffuncomics​ and at BooksOfFunComics on Archive of Our Own.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
in the third panel on the left, above (page 3), Sherlock Bacon and Egg Watson are at the top of the Super Looper roller coaster and say, “I’m scared.” Their random fellow passenger, a waffle, says, “I’m hungry.”
Tumblr media Tumblr media
In the panels above (page 5), Sherlock Bacon says, Hey, where’s my hat?” Egg Watson says, “I don’t know.” Sherlock Bacon says, “Good thing I have a hat tracker,” then goes and gets it from a box labeled “stuff.”
After a while, they arrive at their destination by following the hat tracker. Sherlock Bacon says, “it’s this way.” 
Tumblr media
In the panels above (page 6), Sherlock Bacon hears, “Ha Ha!” from inside a house. He knocks on the door and hears, “Meet me at the waterfall!”
Later, the Evil Vegan Dude says, “I’ll give you your hat if you go vegan.”
“No way!” replies Sherlock Bacon.
“Why you!” says the Evil Vegan Dude, and pushes Sherlock Bacon to the edge of the waterfall. 
Tumblr media
In the panels above (page 7), Sherlock Bacon yells, “We’re gonna hit the chubby dolphin!’   
Tumblr media
In the panels above (page 8), Sherlock Bacon and the Evil Vegan Dude bounce ( “bong!” ) on the chubby dolphin. 
A Note from they who post on Tumblr for booksoffuncomics (because they’re 9 and personal experience with social media can wait until they’re older):
I’ve written on AO3 about how booksoffuncomics created Sherlock Bacon and Egg Watson because of my endless enthusiasm for all things Sherlock Holmes, but booksoffuncomics hasn’t read the stories. 
In Sherlock Bacon 2, I love how booksoffuncomics gets huge canonical facts wrong: Sherlock drinks coffee - not tea, Sherlock drops an important case to go to the Fun Land amusement park with John - but Sherlock is “married to his work.” 
But what booksoffuncomics got right, with zero prompting from me, is this:
Tumblr media
Sherlock and John, walking away together, holding hands, because they go together like bacon and eggs. Yay, booksoffuncomics gets The Dynamic!
(sniff... I’m so proud)    :)

Super Peep Saves Easter
Just in time for 2020′s shelter-at-home Easter celebrations, comes a new and exciting comic by 9-year-old graphic artist and storyteller booksoffuncomics: When evil strikes, can Super Peep save Easter?
Tumblr media Tumblr media
In the middle panel (above), Peep is using their beak to tap on their mobile phone and is not paying attention to their surroundings. The sign says, Be Ware, Super Juice. Peep falls into the super juice (because they’re unaware of their surroundings - personal responsibility message from a 9-year-old, folks).
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Meanwhile, (above) a man without a back story decides to dispose of his evil bunny juice by throwing it into a nearby volcano. The evil bunny juice interacts with the lava and volcanic gasses with disastrous results! The Evil Lava Bunny is born!
Tumblr media
The author wants you to know that they x’ed out 12 days on the April calendar (above) to indicate that it is now Easter day. Also, the giant white bunny and three-color Easter egg are blow-up/inflatable outdoor decorations, similar to those so many suburbanites put in their front yards for holidays.
Tumblr media
The Evil Lava Bunny (above) goes to Super Peep’s house, mistakes the bunny blowup/inflatable decoration for the Easter Bunny, and stabs it.
Tumblr media
When the Evil Lava Bunny stabs the blowup/inflatable Easter Bunny decoration, the air inside the bunny is released in an explosive burst, like a cool wind. It instantly cools the Evil Lava Bunny’s lava, causing them to melt. Super Peep is shocked and saddened by the loss of their outdoor decoration.

Sherlock Bacon and The Hogs of Veganland
A Sherlock Holmes-inspired comic by a 9-year-old kid.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Disclaimer: The author of this story is (mostly) a vegetarian and harbors no ill will towards vegans. The origin of a vegan villain in this story came about because there is a very preachy, know-it-all vegan kid at school who regularly harangues the author on the playground.
