Doctor Bananas, Monkey Magician #1 (Family Comic Friday)

    He's a doctor...
    He's a magician...
    He's a monkey...
   
    In facts, he's all three things rolled into one and he's tons of fun too. 

    He is Doctor Bananas, Monkey Magician!

    In this premier issue by artist and writer Luke Foster, Doctor Bananas is on the hunt for a magical artifact that can do any wondrous thing. In a twist on the legend of the Monkey's Paw, our hero battles a witch named Siobhan, who is trying to sell a magical simian hand at a swap meet. The talisman just happens to be Doctor Bananas' missing right hand and the wizard has better act fast because every time he uses his magic against the paw, the powers backfire onto him, rapidly aging him. 

    Can Doctor Bananas get what is rightfully his (pun intended) before his clock runs out?

    Doctor Bananas, Monkey Magician is an all-ages comic that is completely bizarre and yet the most funny thing you'll read in a long time. I first learned about the comic a couple of weeks ago when I meet Luke Foster at the Oak City NCComiCon in Raleigh, NC. I devoured this book when I got home that night but due to a very busy work schedule, it's taken me a while to get a chance to do a Family Comic Friday post. 

      I feel terrible making you guys wait so long for this review. But in the time that has elapsed, a fourth issue of Doctor Bananas has been published. Sadly, it's also the last...

     But don't fret. Readers can order the adventures of Doctor Bananas through the Indy Planet website (either print or digital) or digital-only via Comixology. 

     So what are you waiting for? Go, check it out now! Laughs await!
