Superosity
Superosity is a daily comic strip by Crosby. It was the first comic ever to be hosted by Keenspot. The comic focuses on the adventure-filled life of an idiot who wears a cape for no apparent reason (Chris), his perpetually angry teenage brother (Bobby), a sentient board (Boardy), and their friends. The Sunday comic usually focuses on the fantastical imaginations of Chris's pets, Giz (a dog) and Mask (a cat).
Superosity launched on March 1, 1999. It has an archive of over 4,000 strips to date. Seven issues of a Superosity print comic book were published from 2001–2002 and distributed by Diamond Comic Distributors to comic book stores. It featured guest artwork by creators such as Jeffrey J. Rowland (Overcompensating) and John Allison (Scary Go Round). Superosity has also been published in newspapers, most notably The Turlock Journal of Turlock, CA.
On July 21, 2006 at Comic-Con International during Keenspot's 6th annual panel discussion, it was announced that an animated TV series called Angelipups would be produced based on the in-strip show by that name. Comics Buyer's Guide positively reviewed the first two issues of the Superosity comic book in late 2001 and Superosity was nominated for "Best Superhero Comic" in the 2002 Web Cartoonist's Choice Awards.
