About this ebook

In a twinkling, a point of light streaked overhead and disappeared behind the trees. A terrific explosion ensued, which Kid Nitro felt as much as heard. The ground quaked and a hot wind ruffled his hair.

The self-proclaimed superhero grabbed his walkie-talkie and spoke breathlessly into it. “We have a UFO sighting on Hillcrest Lane, near the old Murphy place. I’m proceeding to the site to make first contact.” Kid Nitro holstered his walkie-talkie without waiting for a reply. He knew no one was on the other end. The companion walkie-talkie was in his toy box at home.

Kid Nitro wasn’t sure he’d seen a spaceship, but a UFO is simply an Unidentified Flying Object, and whether this one was a meteor or a misguided Air Force cruise missile or even an intergalactic dictionary salesman, he would be the first on the scene to identify it.

At the point of impact, dust still hung thick in the air. Something moved through the haze. “This must be it – my first alien encounter!” His heart thumping, Kid Nitro forced himself to remain calm as he walked slowly forward to greet the strange alien. He hoped it was not visiting Earth in search of a kid-sized snack. As he drew closer to the hunched figure, his worst fears were realized. This monster was fouler, more despicable, and far more dangerous than any space alien imaginable.

The adventure begins...

Rusty Sherrill

Rusty Sherrill was born with an artist’s brush in his hand in Lakeland, Florida. Ever since, his mind has been in art mode. He could glance at a stranger and think, “This guy has a really strange head shape. He’d make a great monster. Soon I’m knee-deep in a painting where a swarm of tiny alien toasters is attacking a giant, strange head-shaped monster. That’s why I paint.” After graduating from art school in Tampa, Rusty moved to California. He has 20-years-experience as a graphic artist in the clothing industry and has freelanced for the movie industry, comic book companies and advertising agencies. Rusty’s gallery pieces have been on display the last decade throughout Southern California and he annually is a well-reviewed artist at the “San Diego Comic-Con Art Show.” Rusty co-wrote and illustrated Kid Nitro and the Sinister Slorp, his first novel and the short story, “Lucy the Little Robot Girl,” based on his acclaimed Little Robot Girl paintings. The artist has a third book, The Art of Rusty Sherrill and other assorted, slightly-twisted things. Complete with the comical ramblings of the artist, the full-color art book showcases 26 paintings including Dexter, Johnny Depp as Sweeney Todd, caricatures of Bill Cowher, Iggy Pop and the Ramones, four Little Robot Girl pieces, surf-related artwork and even a painting (Mechanical Heart) featured on the television show, Big Bang Theory – (displayed on the wall behind Howard Wolowitz’ bed). Sherrill’s painting technique is also described. Rusty Sherrill, 50, lives in Big Bear City, CA, with his wife Cathy, 52, who edited Kid Nitro and the Sinister Slorp and co-wrote “Lucy the Little Robot Girl.” Rusty’s art and a demonstration of his technique can be viewed on his website, www.rsartstudio.com. All three books are available for purchase. The artist/author can be contacted at rsart@aol.com or 714/724-1480.
