Hot Topic To Carry Popular Online Comic Paxx iLL Merchandise

Paxx iLL (aka Paxx), an online comic with an increasing fan list, will enter a new dimension this February when it becomes part of Hot Topics latest merchandise. The national, mall-based retail chain that specializes in apparel, accessories, gifts, and music for teenagers will test Paxxs popularity in 100 of its stores.

(PRWEB) January 30, 2004 --Hot Topic, which ranked fourth on Forbes 2003 Best Small Companies list, will carry a variety of Paxx merchandise designed by his creator, Eddie Robison, a former tattoo artist- turned-Emmy Award-nominated-C.G.-animator. The list includes a limited edition figurine, plush doll, numerous accessories, a CD entitled Dancing On Your Grave, and T-shirts. Some merchandise will also feature Paxxs evil-twinned sisters Darken iLL and Kinda iLL.

Robison, who has contributed to the win of three special effects Emmys for his employer Eden FX, created Paxx a year ago to work out some inner demons. The seven-inch character that Robison refers to as an anti-hero" lives in this world but is not bound by its laws. He spends his days narrowly escaping the evil-doings of his sisters, lurking about the human world -- heard but not seen - and trying to accomplish his mission of ridding the world of common household insects. This task, according to Paxx, must be performed twice.

Robisons web site, http://www.illfatedinc.com, features bios of Paxx and his sisters, an animated preview of a short film he is working on, Robisons own line of merchandise, and five Comix".
Paxx will also make his debut at the American International TOY FAIR on Sunday, February 15 through Wednesday February 18, 2004. The fair is being held at the Jacob K. Javits Convention Center. Paxx merchandise manufacturers such as Alternatoys, Fun-4-All, and C&D Visionary will be there to show off Paxx and to take wholesale orders
