Singless Chronicles: Rise of Proseo

& some responses to fan letters

Greetings, mortals! This Friday, we encounter our greatest challenge since the Billiens!—an entity who hates singing!—a cosmic anti-chorus!—be there & witness the…SINGLESS CHRONICLES: RISE OF PROSEO!

The readers of the main “Singless Chronicles” comic book series [Trade paperback out now! — Grinnin’ Greg] sent in some fan letters that Proseo itself insisted we print here:

PEN CHRONI-PALS
The Un-Melodic Monthly Mailbag!
Singless Chronicles #444

Hello, true be-readers! Chuck Worbley here, writer of this captivating comic magazine! What an adventure—can you believe what happened with Libretto & the Octaver? What a scene! What an ending! But now, let’s answer some your letters from last month’s Singless Chronicles, issue #443

Singless Crew,
      I’ve been reading since issue #201 (the “All-New, Not-Different” era), and I gotta say…it just keeps getting better! I only have one question: when are we getting more Octaver??
Writing without Rhythm,
      Peter F., Sacramento

Well, Peter, I think your Octaver prayers have been answered now in #444! Thanks for sticking with us, lo these many years.

Dear Singless Team,
     Wow! I didn’t think anything would top issue #442, but #443 blew me away! However, there was one little problem: Libretto mentioned never having gone to Japan, but he spent a whole year there, as revealed way back in issue #5 (“All Book, No Lyrics”). What gives?
     Tawny Q., Arcata

What gives, Tawny is us! Giving you a fabulous Quest Comix No-Prize! Well-spotted…now where is that editor? [Out of Office, sorry! — Grinnin’ & Escapin’ Greg]

Dear Pitiful, Song-Filled Mortal-Kind,
     Your finale is upon you. I, Proseo the Cosmic—Proseo the Final Coda—Proseo of the Singless—are come! KNEEL, COMPOSE AN ESSAY OF YOUR END!
     Proseo, the Omniverse Itself

Uh-huh, suuuure thing! We’re shakin’ in our boots here, “Proseo!” Do your worst—I could use a vacation anyway! [PTO denied, sorry! — Human Resourcin’ Greg]

I thought that guy was “out of office”…? Well, anyway, that’s all the room we had for letters this month. I gotta get back to work on the book—if that “Proseo” doesn’t try to stop me that is. WINK!
— Chuck “Songbird” Worbley

Thank ye for reading, mortals—& thank ye to those generous mortals who support our works here with coin!

I hope ye shall join for a truly cosmic crossover in SINGLESS CHRONICLES: RISE OF PROSEO! ‘Til then—be safe, be well, & remember: ye are alive today, which means, ye outlasted OpenAI’s video monstrosity

Cheers,
