The success
"Aww….it's done!" said Gumball satisfied.
They just finished creating their first comic book.
Gumball drew all the vignettes, they were more than thirty and his hand was hurting. Darwin wrote all the dialogues inside the balloons. It required a specific precision; it wasn't easy to fit all the words inside the balloons without going out of bounds.
"Gee, that was tiresome. Making comic books is a chore!" said Gumball massaging his own arm.
"Do you think we made a great comic book? I mean…people will enjoy it?" asked Gumball to Darwin.
"Probably, we need is to read the comic book to someone!" said Darwin.
"Yes, but who?"
Suddenly Anais entered in the room. She was searching something.
"Anais?" said Gumball and the pink little bunny turned her head.
"Would you like to read a comic book?" said Darwin showing the 15 pages long comic.
She nodded and started to read.
"Ah ah…funny!" said once she finished.
"That Billy reminds me dad!" she commented.
"We are happy to see you enjoyed our comic book!" said the blue cat.
"We did it! Our comic is likeable!" exulted Darwin.
"Yes but Anais is a baby, maybe we have to read the comic to a critic, someone who understands comics!" said Gumball.
"A critic? Where we can find one?"
"Hmmmm…!"
Later, Gumball and Darwin went to the comic book store.
"Hmmm…..oh…..ah….." muttered Mr. Larry flipping through the pages of the comic book.
The two kids were sweating, they were afraid about a refuse.
"So?" asked the blue cat to Mr. Larry.
After a while the clerk closed the fifteen pages long comic and gave his opinion.
"Well… the hatch is quite uncertain, and the main character is a little out of proportion, but, I enjoyed the way how that Billy tries to escape from his school at Leafville. I think it is a good comic worthy a shelf. You made a good work!"
Gumball and Darwin were overjoyed.
"Yes yes, we are great cartoonist!" they exulted.
"I have just one thing to ask you!" said Mr. Larry.
"What's your comic book's name?"
That was odd, not even Gumball or Darwin thought about that.
"I can't believe how you guys forgot such a basic thing!" said Mr. Larry.
"Well…huh….." said Darwin.
"I got it….how about "The story of the cute and sweet Billy"" suggested Gumball.
"No, it sounds too girly!" said Darwin.
"We need a more appropriate name! How about "The amazing world of Billy?"" suggested the goldfish.
"Hmm…sounds better but I think we can do better than this!" said the blue cat.
"Oh I got it… how about "The greatest adventures of Billy?"" asked the fish.
"That's better but, it feels like something is missing!"
"Hmmm…. Does your character have a surname?" asked Larry.
"A surname? Ehmm…..no!" said Gumball embarrassed.
"You can give him one! Just use some imagination!" suggested Mr. Larry.
The two kids thought for a while.
"Hmmm….how about Watterson?" said Darwin.
"Billy Watterson? We should give him our same last name? No, that doesn't sound fair to me!" said Gumball.
"But what kind of last name should have a bunny?" said Darwin.
"Bunny? You said Bunny? Hmmm….." Gumball was thoughtful.
"What's wrong?"
"You know what? It sounds cool…Billy with bunny! I think his name will be "Billy Bunny"!"
Darwin was skeptical at the first place but eventually he agreed with his brother.
"So that's it. Our comic book name will be "The greatest adventures of Billy Bunny"!" said at last.
"That's great! You should make more comics!" said Mr. Larry.
"Yes, let's go!" said Gumball.
Back home they started to create the second issues of "The greatest adventures of Billy Bunny!".
Meanwhile they spread their first issue in all Elmore Junior High. Their classmates appreciated a lot their work and soon Gumball and Darwin became highly popular.
"This comic book rocks!" said Karrie.
"I think I love this bunny!" said Terri.
"100% enjoyable comic book!" said Bobert.
They were signing autographs for their fans when an anthropomorphic donkey approached to them.
