Rat-Catcher’s Son

Tom has never had an original idea. He is the son of the local Rat-Catcher and not likely to rise further in life than his father did, so why does he keep having such outlandish adventures?



THE RAT-CATCHER’S SON started as an exercise. I created the first short comic to illustrate the concept of character development, but people urged me to write other stories for Tom.  “The Handmaiden’s Adventure” is a four-chapter comic featuring the Rat-Catcher’s son, illustrated by Anthony Winn.  You can read it in its original Scrollon format at scrollon.com or by clicking the button below.
