What May Be The Shortest Press Release Ever

We receive press releases all the time. They are filled with hyperbolic claims and grandiose verbiage treating even the smallest announcement as earth-shattering. This is what a good PR person is supposed to do. Come up with a great headline, talk about the product in superior tones, quote some important sounding people and then end it with blurbs about all the companies involved. And then as a news/entertainment site we pick out the five or six lines of useful information to put up for our readers.



But then there is DOV TOBIN who sent out this press releaseI post it here in its entirety along with the included picture.




THE PRINCE AND THE POOPER is a story about the corruption of power, the consumption of revenge and, ultimately, a critique on organized religion.



It also features aliens, S&M, an assassination attempt, the Pope, psychedelic visions, and a menage a trois.

Dov explained in the email that they've done something no one else has done on ACTIVATE before, they have released the entire book at once. Dov believes that the Bleeding Cool readers will really enjoy his new webcomic and hopes we will help spread the word.



Dov Tobin may be a marketing geniusor a very sick individual. You decide.
