Zuda’s Alpha Monkey

I have seen the future and it’s called Zuda. Zuda? This is a DC online comic experiment to bring in new talent to the masses. There are many properties that many publishers would not print, but Zuda is up to the task of taking a risk and putting them on the online map. With the premiere of the site up and running, we are treated to a new character called Alpha Monkey for all ages. Created by Howard M. Shum and Bobby Rubio, Alpha Monkey is a highly polished little strip in glorious Flash to accommodate and screen resolution of your computer. It’s fun to glide through the easiness that the site offers. It’s a whole new way to see the comic media exposed in such a new light. Great to see the big boys taking the Internet as a serious tool in discovering new talent.

Hitch is a smart-mouthed, egotistical 8-year-old kid, whose dad is a brilliant, but whacky, scientist who thinks Earth will soon be destroyed by a giant comet. Hitch’s dad builds a rocket to send his beloved son safely to a distant planet, but the rocket ends up opening a dimensional rift in space and crashes Hitch on a planet inhabited by intelligent monkeys. Not only that, but the comet also ends up missing Earth. On this monkey-world, Hitch discovers that when he eats bananas, he gains amazing super powers, such as flight and super strength. As it turns out, the dimensional rift that his rocket created is also allowing monsters from other dimensions to the monkey-planet. Hitch strikes a deal with the monkey-government to fight the monsters while their scientists help find a way to get him back home. He takes on the super-hero name of Alpha Monkey but when not fighting monsters and crime, disguises himself as an ordinary monkey-kid (wearing a cheap plastic Halloween mask).
