Todd Abbot "Side-lined" by Sudden Illness

By Nofuel Surcharge
Special to D.F.G. Online
Since the untimely passing of Flora Lovartalot, Comic-book Artist Todd Abbot has been suffering with bouts of mental illness. Thinking Billy Corrigan of Smashing Pumpkins (whom he's never met) is trying to enlist his services in drawing the cover album art for the band's next release is but one of the many curious behaviors he is exhibiting. More curious was his actions as he layed down outside his mobile home and announced he was going to grow turkeys. Abbot is showing all kinds of symptoms of mental illness including: shifting between giddy and nonsensical, happy to depressed, crying, and semi-normal, to belligerent, foul mouthed, vulgar and destructive behavior over a period of hours, back and forth. He's barely slept or eaten since Flora's death. Darryl Andrews, DFG Co-Publisher commented, "I doubt the validity of the psychiatric diagnosis due to the sudden onset and severity of the symptoms, and suspect physio-neurological problems instead. Todd is simply, one messed up person". Todd Abbot could not be reached for comment as he is on foot in the Amalfi Coast.

Another example of the DFG fatcats sticking their heads in the ground and thinking the fans will rally around them rather than the talented superstars that they employ.

A Todd Abbot fan.

"A Todd Abbot fan" should post his name and not be such a coward. DFG still rocks and I support DFG all the way. DFG has given a start to so many artists and writers and they constantly malign DFG through fake illnesses, and death. Come on guys, how about giving DFG some gratitude.

Todd Abbot should be shown more respect. Hasn't he created all the best characters at DFG save Spymaster? I'm beginning to think DFG is a sham!!
