The Art and Writing of Kenneth Gerleve

Join The Bizarre Romance Parade And Let Your Skeleton Jangle

To celebrate the release of Bizarre Romance, Audrey and Eddie collaborated with Ken Gerleve (animation) and Alex Kliner (music) to produce a series of short animations based on some of the characters from Bizarre Romance. We hope you enjoy watching them as much as we enjoyed making them. 

Once upon a time a writer and an artist got married. “Let’s collaborate,” said the writer. “Ugh, no thanks, darling,” said the artist. But lo and behold, they collaborated and here is the result: thirteen stories about oddballs in love, infestations of angels, nefarious fairies, cats, spies, monsters, more cats, bibliophiles who just want a little extra reading time, magic mirrors, artist’s models who nap on the job, imperfect boyfriends, and daughters who are perhaps a little too dutiful.
