The Book of Culls: The Best Human Cull Comics

By Alex Hallatt

Have you ever been cut off in traffic? Or stepped in something that a dog owner has neglected to pick up? Or held a door open for someone, only to have them to breeze by you without so much as a nod of thanks? 

What if you could vaporise those responsible so that it was as if they had never existed? "Human Cull" imagines just that. 

People from all over the planet have sent in their cull suggestions for a little green alien to remove the really annoying people and leave the world a better place for the rest of us.

Who's annoying you most? 

Cull them!

Alex Hallatt

Alex Hallatt is a cartoonist and writer, who has lived in the UK, US, Australia, Spain and New Zealand (where she currently lives with her partner, Duncan). Her illustrated experiences of living in the coastal town of Hondarribia, Spain have been published in A Basque Diary. Being bullied at school is something Alex remembers vividly and she wouldn't want it to happen to anyone else. It inspired her first chapter book for 8-12 year olds: FAB (Friends Against Bullying) Club. FAB Club was a big hit with kids and the sequels: FAB Club 2 - Friends Against Cyberbullying and FAB Club 3 - The Big Match are out now. Alex is also the creator of Arctic Circle, a syndicated comic strip, distributed worldwide by King Features. It is about three penguins who have emigrated to the Arctic and has an underlying environmental theme. Her tongue-in-cheek single panel comic, Human Cull, appears on GoComics.com and the best of them are found in the bumper Book of Culls. Doodle Diary is another panel running on GoComics.com and includes Alex's New Zealand Diary and Reasons to Be Cheerful. Alex's preschool book, Hoover the Hungry Dog, features a greedy yellow dog who first appeared in a website about lunch. The website is no more, but Hoover was too fun a character to disappear with it. Alex also illustrates books for other publishers, including Walter Foster, Hachette Livre and Summersdale. More of her cartoons can be seen at www.alexhallatt.com, where you can sign up to her illustrated epistle to see what she is working on now.
