I'm currently self-publishing a book called "The Troll and The Giant", which is about an internet Troll who sees his favorite superhero destroyed in a terrible comic-to-movie adaptation. He gets so pissed about the butchering of the character that he decides to wage war against the film Giant responsible for the creation of the film.

The book is 28 pages and in a storybook format geared towards comic fans. It's currently on sale at Discount Comic Book Service. If you guys are interested, here's the link.

Ha! Well, I honestly didn't do a ton of research. There are actually parts of me in the Troll of the story. I've seen plenty of comic-to-film adaptations that I got aggravated about.

You should post on the front page, a summary of the book, a few pages of interior, etc. It'll then be posted to the OH facebook and twitter.

Good luck, it really looks good.


Oh, the link you posted doesn't go to the right page. Try this one.
