Cover Reveal For THE ADVENTURES OF COUCH POTATO by Nigel Mitchell




Happy Fathers Day!
I find it appropriate that on the day fathers get to kick back and relax, we get a cover reveal for a book about a superhero couch potato.
Check out the full cover after the jump.


Carl Potter was a fat, bald, lazy guy until a freak accident transformed him into a fat, bald, lazy superhero named Couch Potato. Now he's forced to get off his beloved chair to fight an invasion of alien furniture, a ruthless cult of Elvis impersonators, and an army of groundhogs trying to plunge our world into an eternal six months of winter. Couch Potato: he'll save the world, if there's nothing good on TV.

Nigel is one half of the Geek Twins.
He has a great sense of humor that he has used in his writing. His work has been featured regularly in Slashfilm, Blastr, io9, and Screenrant. His short stories have been published in Lost Worlds, 365 Tomorrows, and Black Hole Magazine.

The Adventures of Couch Potato.
You can find his books here: Amazon.
And his Blog is here: Nigel G. Mitchell.
Do you know Nigel?
What did you think of the new cover?

    Love that cover! I have to wonder about what kind of adventures a couch potato could have. Falling into a couch crack?

    You do know that there is another dimension in the cushions of the couch? ;-)
