Insane-O-Tron is a hilarious trip into the absurd and surreal, with stories about a family-themed TV show gone wrong, inter-species dating, a talking haircut, trick-or-treating with a candy wizard, magical dancing ponies and an earwig’s day trip to the gutter. These stories are insane! Insane-O-Tron is a collection of six short stories about unexpected characters in crazy situations, with plenty of action, adventure, Sci-Fi, fantasy, friendship, family and romance.
This is never a good way to go. Enough said.
If you're a young earwig, there's nothing quite like the thrill of climbing on to a large pile of floating shit and pretending its a pirate ship.
This scene played in prime time to a nationwide audience of millions. It was well received.
Jane just had a terrible first date and Peter isn't about to let the smell of his poop pants, ruin the tender moment, between him and his daughter.
Tommy just got his haircut, and it is awesomely sexy. So much so that people on the street can't help but proposition it.
The Candy Wizard is no candy ass. This guy has been around the block a few times and he'll just as likely give you a delicious, chocolate candy bar as kick your ass.
Scott has written all kinds of terrible TV shows. Cat Food wasn't that bad but he may have stepped over the line on this one.
Antediluvian is the wisest pony in Pony Land, his advice though, might not be what you want to hear.
It easy to survive an extinction level event when someone tells you its coming.
Peter Hunter is a piss poor civil engineer. Some of his low lights include a road with alternating patches of pavement and gravel, a stop sign on a freeway, and a car jump over a two thousand foot canyon instead of a bridge.
Ms. Crabenscab isn't winning any beauty pageants and Billy's about to find out why. Happy Halloween!
The bathroom situation at the Dirty Fisherman is a little sketchy. If you find yourself having to use the facilities there be prepared to contract a disease or two. In the Dirty Fisherman's defense, I have heard that their low quality, grease battered, barely edible cod is to die for.
Gooch likes to expand his mind. Don't judge him. He's not hurting anyone. It's not his fault, that his main source of food is an intense hallucinogenic.
Fun fact: Young earwigs, like Ernie, love candy. Other popular bug candies include Lady Bug Brittle, Thorax Jerky and Dung Balls.
Scott's one attempt at dramatic TV was a complete failure. It got him banned from Australia for a year, even though he had never been there.
Peter is a hunter, but the kind of hunter who's better at it when he's drunk, like someone who's better at pool after they've had a few.
Insane-O-Tron is already crazy so I figured I might as well make it as crazy as possible. Time Cocaine is in fact a hell of a drug, one that might just get you out of a bad situation.
This excerpt is from the opening chapter of the title story, Insane-O-Tron. I open the story with a huge gun battle where I introduce the main character Tommy and the mysterious Insane-O-Tron. I want to leave the reader wondering just what in the world the Insane-O-Tron is.
