From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Superosity is a daily comic strip by
Chris Crosby, the
co-founder and co-CEO of Keenspot.[1][2] It was
the first comic ever to be hosted by Keenspot.[3] The
comic focuses on the adventure-filled life of an idiot who wears a
cape for no apparent reason (Chris), his perpetually angry teenage
brother (Bobby), a sentient board (Boardy), and their friends. The
Sunday comic usually focuses on the fantastical imaginations of
Chris's pets, Giz (a dog) and Mask (a cat).
Superosity launched on March 1, 1999.[4] It has
an archive of over 3,000
strips to date.[5][6]
Print
Seven issues of a Superosity print comic book were
published from 2001-2002 and distributed by Diamond Comic Distributors
to comic book stores. It featured guest artwork by creators such as
Jeffrey J. Rowland (Overcompensating) and John Allison
(Scary Go
Round).
Superosity has also been published in newspapers, most
notably The Turlock Journal of Turlock,
CA.[7]
Animated
series
On July 21, 2006 at Comic-Con
International during Keenspot's 6th annual panel discussion, it was
announced that an animated TV series called Angelipups
would be produced based on the in-strip show by that name.[8]
