The home for everything Smash!
One for the undead homies.
Beloved actor Christopher Lee passed away at the age of 93. Best known for playing Dracula in many classic Hammer Horror films and, most recently, Saruman in the Lord of the Rings films and Count Dooku in the Star Wars prequel trilogy, Lee was iconic in voice and appearance. He will be dearly missed and impossible to replace.
In this image, SMASH artist Kyle Bolton pays tribute to one of the great undead.
Robot-Men Vs. Giant Monster! GO!
If Jurassic World didn't satisfy your appetite for dino-action, check out today's page of our weekly SMASH webcomic. Cyborgs fighting giant monsters... it must be summertime!
Who doesn't dream about flying robot-men?!
Did you know we publish a webcomic about Smash? Every Tuesday we post a brand-new comic page just like this one.
We're doing this to provide brand-new, exciting SMASH comics while we work hard to get Book 2 finished. Writing and drawing an entire graphic novel can take a long time -- sometimes a lot longer than we'd like -- so the webcomic ensures there are fresh SMASH adventures to read while you wait!
Click here to read more and come back next Tuesday to see the Monster Fighters fight the monster!
Smash flies into action!

Everyone say "SMAAAASH!"
SMASH writer Chris A. Bolton got to meet and chat with the amazing 5th graders at Sweetbriar Elementary School in Troutdale, OR.
These enthusiastic kids are studying graphic novels and are about to make their own, so Chris talked about their creative process and showed them a few things from How to Make Comics - the Smash Way.
(And yes, Chris mentioned that when he was a kid, they didn't study comics in school -- they tried to hide them from the teachers!)
Big thanks to Lynn Reaney and all the staff and faculty at Sweetbriar for being awesome. And HUGE thanks to the students for their super-smart questions and great ideas! We can't wait to see how their comics come out.
Chris shows the kids how to thumbnail a comic page.
Chris tries to draw... *Gulp!*
The kids made their 1st comic - a banana and a pickle in a car! (It doesn't end happily for the banana.)
A roomful of eager young comic lovers!
Look away! It's too horrible for mortal eyes!
This week's webcomic is SO huge and scary that this tiny picture is all we're allowed to show you, by law!
If you're brave and strong enough, feel free to click here and see the whole page. But please be careful! Have someone dial 9 and 1 and hold their finger over the other 1, just in case you pass out from shock and horror. We don't want anyone to get hurt because of this awfulness!
It's nice to share space with one of our graphic novel heroes, Bone!
For the second year in a row, we're honored that the School Library Journal blog 100 Scope Notes has selected our graphic novel, SMASH: TRIAL BY FIRE, as one of the Top 10 Circulated Graphic Novels of the Year!
This puts us in fine company like Bone, Amulet, Smile, Stone Rabbit, and Nathan Hale's Hazardous Tales. Thanks to Travis Jonker for checking in to find out what K-5 students are checking out.
Kyle with the B.F. Day Kids!
SMASH artist Kyle Bolton gave a reading for the kids at B.F. Day Elementary School in Seattle. A wild and raucous time was had by all! Obviously the "B.F." must stand for "Bright Future!"
The newest webcomic page is up and flying high! Click here to read it now.
And come back every Tuesday for a brand-new page of SMASHing excitement!
How much do you NOT want to be Captain America, riding toward this guy? Let's just hope the Winter Soldier feels like taking a long break from fighting...
