A war between Heaven and Hell has been waged for eons. Both sides working hard to sway the morals of the humans. In the last days of the war Hell, desperate for an edge, begins a new kind of warfare. A warfare waged with children. Satan sends his second in command to take the form of a simple teddy bear to begin the collection of child souls. Little does the bear know what kind job he has really gotten into.

[edit] Reviews

"Hey kids! You like Jhonen Vasquez (Johnny The Homicidal Maniac, Invader Zim), right? You like Roman Dirge (Lenore)? Well, here is a new name to remember in the world of cute evil and demented dark humor — Christopher Petty. Petty comes out of the gates here running, with a 39-page tomb from the young indie publishers at Alterna Comics, that sets out to rewrite the Old Testament, paint God as a drunken sprite that made Man just so he’d have someone to laugh with at his creations of camels and flying squirrels, and Lucifer as a stressed-out snazzy-suit-wearing CEO." - GeeksofDoom.com

"This was a fun read. The banter between the devil and his minions is great and the concept as a whole is unique.

Some might be a little turned off by the depiction of God and Jesus in the early part of the book, but I don't believe it was mean spirited in any way. The second two thirds of the book centers around the devil and his helpers, one of which gets sent to earth to help turn the tied back to the devil's side. And thus, Mr. Puffinopolis is born." - Indycomicreview.com
