Does the Afterlife Have Skittles? - the 6th Candorville Collection volume 2

by Darrin Bell

Overview

PART TWO of the 6th collection of the syndicated comic strip "Candorville" by Darrin Bell. Can Lemont make time to interview President Obama’s evolving position on gay marriage and Syria’s vicious dictator, even while he’s suing an evil vampire for custody of their son in a court run by the vampire’s own mother? Will he be derailed by nepotism, by the incompetence of his six-year-old attorney, or by the testimony of his former roommate from the insane asylum?


Back home, Lemont’s "One That Got Away" Facebooks him after 14 years, but her mountain of secrets threatens to spoil their second chance at love. Meanwhile, Susan’s boss decides to join the War on Women, and Lemont accompanies Osama Bin Laden, Steve Jobs, Whitney Houston, and Trayvon Martin on their Final Journeys to the afterlife. And all along, two homeless street philosophers have a strange conversation while they wait by the side of a city road, for *something.*

Candorville delivers biting social & political satire, and the occasional vampire/time travel sublot, to daily newspapers nationwide.

About the Author

Although both his parents were teachers in the Los Angeles Unified School District, the Bells were not eligible for welfare. So at an early age, Darrin carved a set of pencils and brushes from a nearby fern and taught himself to draw.

Darrin was sent to the best public schools in Los Angeles, and was, nevertheless, admitted to the University of California at Berkeley where he graduated with a B.A. in Political Science. Throughout college, he served as the staff editorial cartoonist for The Daily Californian, was a regular contributing cartoonist for the editorial pages of the Los Angeles Times, the San Francisco Chronicle, and the Oakland Tribune, and co-created the comic strip "Rudy Park" for tech magazines in Silicon Valley.

Darrin has won several awards, including first AND second place in the Society of Professional Jounalists Region 11 Mark of Excellence Awards (2000), first place in the California Intercollegiate Press Association competition (2000, 1999 and 1998), second in the Charles Schulz Awards (1997 and 1996), and second in the AAEC's Locher Awards (1998).

Both of Darrin's comic strips, "Rudy Park" and "Candorville," are syndicated internationally to hundreds of newspapers and websites. Read more about Darrin at http://www.darrinbell.com
