In the very early 2000s Benjamin Lee Blankenship - now known throughout the fiction world as B. L. Blankenship drew a comic strip about his father Larry Blankenship and entitled it and the protagonist Larry Bogus. Nearly 2 decades later after his father asked him to & fully funded the comic - a full-length 24-page comic book about the maniac depressive disordered character and his everyday antics. It was sincerely nice of him to fund this comic - the hook that went along with the funds was that it be a Larry Bogus comic. While dictating that, Larry then began to accost his wife (i.e. B. L.'s mother) while she was sitting right there for nearly an hour - exclaiming how everything is always her fault and never his & things of that nature. Stylistically, something like this might be most similar to Mad Magazine's Monroe, King of The Hill, Aqua Teen Hunger Force, Daria, or something like that.

B. L. Blankenship said of this that it is the absolute easiest thing that he could write - because he'd live around it for so many years. Frankly, if a television network read this they may want to base a Roseanne-type sitcom off of it or something - though it may be a bit closer to the fictitious television show Psycho Dad - that was Al Bundy's favorite program to watch on Married with Children. Many of the characters look a bit different than they do in real life & others were purposely not put in this out of respect for them. Jonelle & the writer himself - (renowned fiction/horror author) B. L. Blankenship aka the Reverend Benjamin Lee Blankenship aka (Southern Gospel Music Z-List Celebrity, Lyricist, etc.) BEN*JAM - kinda had to be in it.

As always, B. L. would rather put out more products at reasonable prices than do crowdfunding. In late 2023 he began writing & putting out comic books. There are plenty more planned to come out through 2025 - including his HELLFIRE series which is on the back cover of this. If his comics do well enough to actually make money, or a comic book publisher hires him for work - that'll be counted as a win. Either way, he says that he plans to have fun making them in the meantime.
