Wheatus Comic

Hey Guys!

It has been a while, but i'm back! After a fantastic tour of Wheatus, which I enjoyed so incredibly much. I have finally found some time to make a new blog!
Today I'm going to write about the Wheatus comic.

A few months ago I got a message from Jane, Wheatus' merch wonder, asking me if I wanted the Wheatus comic. I didn't even know it excisted but when I heard of it, I needed it. Jane could get it for me via an other Wheatus fan. Acquiring it took a short while. I agreed with Jane that she would bring it to one of the shows in October. Unfortunately Jane didn't receive the comic in time so I had to wait a bit longer. Didn't really matter to me, as long as I got it. On the day it arrived I was really psyched. After opening the package and eating my dinner the reading began.

The comic was released back in 2001, if I am right it was made for the tour Wheatus did that year. I don't know how many were made but I do know they're not easy to find online. It's not a very long comic, but it's a great tribute to us frogs. The comic tells about Brendan who is having a huge writers block. He just can not come up with new songs. He then gets the suggestion to eat something, when he discovers Pete Brown ate all the food on the tour bus. Brendan gets mad , but Pete finds a sandwich he had stashed at the beginning of the tour. It's moldy and Brendan gets sick. When he goes into the toilet to vomit he starts spacing and the toilet turns into a blue and yellow squared room. A lot happens, but after a while Brendan figures out that their greatest achievement is earning all of their fans. It then start raining frogs who then all literally lift him over his writers block. He then wakes up grabs his guitar and occupies the toilet to write awesome music.

In the back of the book there is a small info box saying you can order the comics plus more via mail. It also says the comic came with a free poster. I hope to find this poster one day so that I can add it to my collection.

Well that's it. I hope you enjoyed my blog. If you feel the need to say something please feel free to contact me. I always like to hear what you think!

Thanks for reading!
