As you may have guessed, it’s a parody of the Disney+ hit “The Mandalorian” with artwork by Alan MacBain and script by LB. It tells the story of a mysterious creature known as The Puppy Child (Darla) and the intergalactic Rocker (Lou) who becomes her protector. Their misadventures unfold in a “season” of eight chapters with each “chapter” represented by a single coloring-book page. Watch for various actors and Rock stars in cameos.

Plus, you can win cool prizes by coloring the pages! Color and post the new page each week on your social media using the hashtag #TheDarlalorian. They’ll be judged in two divisions including Hand Colored and Computer Colored. Winners each week will receive a poster of the cover signed by LB and Darla, as well as other goodies.

Of course, this is not the first time that Lou, Darla, and Alan have teamed up for a coloring book. To celebrate the 50th anniversary of the film “Yellow Submarine” from The Beatles, they published another coloring book parody entitled “Yorkie Submarine.” Read about it and download it here.

HOLIDAY CARD 2020

With the arrival of the holiday season, it’s time to unveil the artwork for this year’s Christmas card from Lou and Darla the Wonder Dog.

As 2020 has been pretty nasty, Lou thought it would be nice to use a card theme that drew off of some beloved childhood art. So he called up artist Alan MacBain and they dreamed up an image.

This year’s card is based on an original illustration by E.H. Shepard for A.A. Milne’s short story “Winnie the Pooh and the North Pole Expedition.” In our version, Darla and Lou are joined by Venus the Meowing Pussycat, Rosie the Pup, Moses the Gregarious Barn Cat, and Little Stevie the Pony. The inside of the card reworks text from the Pooh story.

To get a card, you must first send a card! Write to Brutus and Darla – PO Box 361 – Arnold MD 21012.

PLEASE NOTE: Because of backups at the USPS, Lou had not yet received his cards from the printer as of Saturday December 19th. Please be patient if you’ve written in. Thanks.

VOTE DARLA 2020!

Darla the Wonder Dog is running for office… although we don’t know exactly WHAT office that might be.

She recently informed LB that “I think it’s time for ME to be in charge” because “How much worse could I make it?” With that in mind, she has forced Lou into the job of campaign manager.

Part of the initial phase of Darla’s campaign has been the creation of a social media presence. You can now follow official Darla the Wonder Dog accounts on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.

There is also Vote Darla 2020 swag in production including stickers, pins, and lawn signs. These will be available for her supporters through social media contesting on Darla’s accounts. Some of these items will be autographed the candidate herself!

Darla is confident in regard to the approaching campaign stating, “I will rule with an iron paw!” It would seem that Lou is less-than-thrilled, muttering under his breath, “I’m getting a bad feeling about this.”
