The Krilers

The Krilers is a 2001 graphic novel by writer Andres Contos and artist Jon Contor, published by CRAP Comics. It was released on a single copy, softcover format.
Alhough it was deemed a non-canon, humouristic tale, Siddo Vicio used this story as a basis for the famous photographic series The New Monsters, released in 2007. It has often been re-published as a coda-story to the first comic-novel released in 2005 by Paglia Comics, The House of the Honorable Mr. Contos, authored by Seby.
==Plot==
A young, solitary punk is walking down a dark road, fearing the dark. He stops to watch the sky, thinking that it's a friend, but the stars and the Moon mock him instead. Then, suddenly, he is ambushed by some very strange characters: they're a gang of psychopatic monsters called "The Five of the Hand of Satan", featuring guys like Jack, Bob, David, The Pyrotechnic and Koki. The young punk asks what they want from him; they laugh, before attacking, dismembering and eating him. What follows are pages of increasing madness, with new strange monsters appearing, including The Piovra. In the end, another young man, coming from nowhere, smiles and, with a marijuana joint in his mouth, breaks the fourth wall with the words: "We smoke to live, guys!"
==Critical reaction==
Julian Bronzestein of UCR ranked The Krilers #5 on a list of the 25 greatest graphic novels, calling it "the best story ever told" and "one of the most well-paced action tales you'll ever read".
