title: A Dummy's Guide to Danger 1
author: Jason M. Burns
description: A Dummys Guide To Danger is an excellent comic book, working botht he pulp and comic side of the line. The amazing Viper produces another winner with this book. --SilverBulletComicBooks.com<br /><br />Everyone knows ventriloquist dummies are creepy but Jason M. Burns comics prove they can be clever, scheming and laugh-your-ass-off funny too. Hell, if the dummies I ran into were this smart, Hollywood would be a much more enjoyable place. --Daniel Truly, Writer/Producer, Blade: The Series
