Here’s one of those titles that you have to look harder at—no matter how frightening the images are—because there is something important being said. It is a simple message—you’ll find it spoken in a dialogue balloon in the very first issue. But how many readers will catch it…?

Not many perhaps. Just as most of us tend to skip by those people who are always there—that homeless man in the alley, that bag lady who always speaks to herself…

Well, as the blurb printed on the back cover suggests, it is time to stop…look…and acknowledge. The Creeps are real. The Creeps are not going away. The Creeps are tired of all the crap. And the Creeps are going to do something about it!

This is a story about the users and the used. The Creeps actually represent a much larger demographic. But how many readers will catch it…?
