FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
NASHVILLE, TN—Years ago, Grace Mann ran from home to make her fortune in
the big city—but things didn’t work out like she’d hoped. Following a career as
a semi-successful professional lady wrestler, the prodigal daughter has returned
home to Hope Falls, Tennessee … where she now serves as the small town’s new
sheriff. Her adventures unfold every week online in the new comic strip
Best Mann For The Job, produced by mystery writer Chris Well and
comics veteran Erica Well.
“Grace is trying to make something better of her life, but she’s still dealing with
a lot of baggage from her past,” explains Chris, who co-writes the series with
wife/artist Erica. “And Best Mann For The Job will explore that—along with all the
crime-fightin’ action you can expect when the sheriff is an ex- pro-wrestler with anger management issues.”
“Like a lot of us, Grace is just trying to find where she fits in life,” adds Erica, a former staffer for DC Comics and
creator of The Miller Sisters comic strip. “There’s a very good possibility she’s finally found here place—and,
much to her surprise, it’s back home.”
Readers can start the story from the beginning at StudioWell.com/BestMannForTheJob. There’s also a
preview trailer on YouTube and a fan page on Facebook.
