GUEST ANNOUNCEMENT!!!
Nick Davis is an Englishman in the USA, searching for a good cup of tea. He is also the writer and occasional artist of the monsta-hunta’verse, the world of threadbare cuddly toys, led by Mr. Button, the teddy bear bounty hunta, that protect us from the monsters under the bed and their master, the Boogeyman.

Occasionally, Nick can be found plodding away on a worn-out keyboard, drawing the adventures of a comedic teddy bear bounty hunter, or playing with Lego while he explores and tells the stories of the tea-powered fantasy worlds of the monsta-huntas!
Adventures ahead!!!
