Have any of you seen the small plushies you can buy of various germs, bacteria and parasites?  I bought my niece a small stuffed pimple bacteria, and she went crazy for it.  Soon she had plushies of a heartworm and a white blood cell.  We love to draw together, and this comic just sort of came out of her li’ imagination and onto the paper.  I knew that it easily fit the weirdish-surreal, hopefully cute mold of The Brotherhood, and when I asked my editors if we could publish it, I got the green light.Underneath, a small cartoon of Talynn’s funny she made when we were playing cards with family.   She’s an awesome kid.
