About Tiny Wizards
Burgers. Fries. and a side of magic.
Tiny Wizards whisks together the swords and sorcery of fantasy-genre classics like “Game of Thrones” , “Lord of the Rings”, or “Once and Future King” into a bowl with heaps of fast food hijinks and food fights — all at the scale of surprise-inside action figures! Fans of Pixar’s “Onward”, the perspective warping of “Honey, I Shrunk the Kids”or “Ant-Man” will find this book a perfect to include in their collection. The debut issue has been produced in a “prestige-format” as a gorgeous limited edition comic book with graphic novel styling. It was produced with care and attention you’d expect from premier publishing houses.
“Tiny Wizards is a lot of fun. Writer Eben Burgoon introduces us to much death and destruction here, but it’s all done in such a playful, slapstick way that you can’t help but laugh. From the unicorn’s butt at the start to an army of tomato sachets to the dopey fry-cooks and order-takers, there’s lots to enjoy here. ”
Not much is known about how or where the wizards came from, just that they've become pest to the people that work at the fast food joints, tourist attraction for the people just passing through, and for the tiny wizards? Well, they're the burger and fries of this story. Tiny Wizards follows the adventures of the dimunitive wizards that are struggling to survive in what they view as their post-apocalypse and still vying for control of the houses of powers.

Reviews & Reactions to Tiny Wizards #1
“Dean Beattie has done a stellar job at bringing a pretty fantastic (in the truest sense of the word) concept to life. I LOVE The Wizard and Hugo, his derpy Unicorn buddy and the slightly grotesque look of the humans. There are also puns a-go-go throughout, including one close to the end that actually made me groan when it registered and then chuckle like a madwoman!”
“This book from beginning to end is simply... HOLY CRAP. It’s DOPE.”

A Comics Beat Small Press Spotlight in Summer 2021.
“Beattie has this amazing style which is cartoonishly contorted, but with a painterly background that gives it a real sense of elegance too. It has the anarchic qualities of Ralph Steadman and the vibrant colours of Shaky Kane, but without looking like he is trying to copt either of those artists. His work is truly one of a kind. This book is a truly epic read.”

Meet The Wizard
Known as “The Wizard” in the former world, this exiled fellow is cut off from the rest of the magic users that have taken roost in the various fast food restaurants in the city.
Meet Hugo
Serving as an all-powerful wizard’s familiar is a difficult task. Hugo serves his master dutifully, but the frequent experimental spell-casting have left Hugo in a less-than-standard state as a handsome unicorn.
