The Chow Raid

This is a quick introduction to "Tales of the Beanworld," a peculiar comic by Larry Marder.
Every few days the beans' spiritual guardian, Gran'Ma'Pa, produces a Sprout Butt which Mr. Spook must spear it on his trusty fork and lead the Chow Soljer Army on a Chow Raid against the Hoi Polloi Ring Herd. Chow is the Hoi Polloi's currency, but for the beans it is their soul source of food, which they consume by absorbing in a pool.
In exchange for stealing the Hoi Polloi's Chow, Mr. Spook leaves behind the Sprout Butt that will be transformed into more Chow by the Hoi Polloi's love.
"Tales of the Beanworld" ran for seven years with Eclipse Comics and after a fifteen year sabbatical is now going to be released as a complete collection (plus new stories!) by Dark Horse Comics.
Fashion Buddha Studio is composed primarily of comic book nerds and are, naturally, huge fans of Marder's work.

So was it pretty much drawn in photoshop and animated in After Effects?
Are there going to be more adventures?
The characters are all puppets created in flash and composited in after effects.
As for more adventures - I hope so! Assuming there is another opening in our schedule.
