Book excerpt: If your crossed The Simpsons with The Osbournes you would get...The Sixsmiths. The Sixsmiths are a family of suburban Satanists who've fallen prey to the global recession. Now their life is in turmoil: the father Ralf needs to find a new job; the twins, Cain and Lilith, need to survive the horrors of the public school system; and wife Annie needs to keep them all sane and under budget. Meanwhile, their estranged elder daughter Jezabelle is having her own crisis of faith. Will the Devil rise to smite their enemies, or will he damn them with hellfire, wrath and an underwater mortgage payment? A lighthearted comedy for adults. THIS ISSUE: Annie seeks counseling from the Vicar Melmoth and this is conducted in the customary way for Modern Orthodox Satanists—during intercourse. Melmoth counsels Annie to find some space for herself as well as her family. As Cain and Mary join the school’s jazz ensemble, Lilith and Julius go on a date. And Ralf receives an unexpected phone call from ex-coworker Vicky, but he shrugs her off, he is on a mission to enroll for unemployment benefits. "This is a great book and the creators should be proud of themselves. I believe it is one of the breakthrough graphic novels coming from a new age of Australian comics." - Black Mermaid Productions. "Franks paces the narrative deftly when it could have easily fallen quickly into the mundane and gives each character simple but effective motivations. Schmidt’s uncluttered artwork provides all the detail necessary and compliments Franks’ story well. Expressions are varied conveying characters’ feelings excellently and all characters are distinctly recognizably. The artwork is in some way reminiscent of more animated cartoon production such as Beavis and Butthead, King of the Hill, and more recently Ugly Americans. In fact, I could see The Sixsmiths translating to the animated cartoon medium without much trouble at all, Satan willing..." - Mapping the Universe.com A Caliber Comics release.
