Leaving Planet Ree
Episode 1
|
Episode 1
"Noted Author Scott Sutton To Appear At San Diego ComicCon!" The bold headlines from Earth shocked Planet Ree! Upon learning the news, SUPERBEEBEE, then disguised as a mild-mannered reporter for Ree World News, transformed himself into his true identity and announced he was embarking on an epic mission to join Scott in California on July XX through XX to promote TRUTH, JUSTICE and the BEEBEE WAY! The only problem is, our mild-mannered reporter wasn't too keen on navigation...or geography. But even though he isn't really sure where he's going, SUPERBEEBEE will will travel the globe and leave no corner of the Earth unexplored (if necessary) to complete his quest! Before he can find San Diego, he will have to brave the deepest, darkest reaches of our solar system! Check back regularly to see SUPERBEEBEE's progress...THROUGH SPAAAACE!

Landing in Phoenix

Episode 3 SUPERBEEBEE has arrived on Earth! But, where's Scott? This building looks like a spaceship and it's close to Scott's home, so Superbeebee feels like he's PRETTY WARM.

Goblin Valley
|
|
Episode 6
SUPERBEEBEE found this really creepy place...it doesn't look much like the photos of the San Diego Convention Center where Scott is supposed to be.

Devil's Tower
|
|
Episode 7
SUPERBEEBEE doesn't seem to be having much luck finding Scott. He thought this huge column of rock might be a great place for a Close Encounter of some kind, but he was mistaken...Onward! Scott is out there somewhere! Like, comment, or share this post to have a chance to win an autographed copy of Scott E.

Space Needle
|
|
Episode 8 - Alternate Version
SUPERBEEBEE continues his search across all corners of the Earth, trying to locate Scott. This tall building looks like it could point the way. But wait! This Needle is pointing back into space! That can't be right! Do you know where SUPERBEEBEE is? Can you guess where he's headed next? |
Denali Alaska

Great Wall - China
|
|

Bangkok Thailand
|
|
Episode 12
SUPERBEEBEE certainly seems to be finding lots of interesting buildings, but NO SCOTT! Onward, ever onward, in his search for TRUTH, JUSTICE and COMIC CON! |
Sydney Australia
|
|
Episode 13 - Sydney Australia
SUPERBEEBEE has discovered beautiful sounds coming from one of the buildings in this southern city. Could it be a Sea Beastie? It might be...check to see if the moon is right! In any case, still no SCOTT! Zikes, and AWAAAY! |
Antarctica
|
|
Episode 14 - Antarctica
Are these strange animals formally-dressed Snow Pookas? Are they getting ready for Comic Con opening night? SUPERBEEBEE is convinced he's on the wrong track. It's COOOOOLD! Every direction is cold! What to do? |
Madagascar Baobab trees
|
|
Episode 15 - Madagascar
SUPERBEEBEE has discovered very strange looking trees. Are they talking trees like in Ree? Maybe they can help SUPERBEEBEE get back on track! |
Kenya Africa
|
|
Episode 16 - Kilimanjaro, Kenya
Another mountain! SUPERBEEBEE is sure finding a lot of iconic mountains! What a strange planet Earth is! But never fear, SUPERBEEBEE will continue his search and never give up until he locates Scott! |
Egypt
|
|
Episode 17 - Cairo, Egypt
SUPERBEEBEE has discovered something he's never seen before...a building that will NEVER TIP OVER! But still no Scott! SUPERBEEBEE is convinced he's getting closer to Comic Con, but where will he wind up next? |
Greece
|
|
Episode 18 - Athens, Greece (Parthenon)
SUPERBEEBEE has discovered that THIS building is not in shape to host a Comic Con. There's no roof! On to the next stop! |
Moscow
|
|
Episode 19 - Moscow (St. Basil's Cathedral)
SUPERBEEBEE is getting hungry, and this iconic building isn't helping...the domes remind SUPERBEEBEE of soft-serve ice cream, or chocolate drops! The colors are sure pretty, but there isn't a Comic Con in sight. Where do you think SUPERBEEBEE is? Where should he head next? |
Copenhagen
|
|
Episode 20 - Copenhagen (Little Mermaid statue)
SUPERBEEBEE stopped to ask this Sea Princess for directions, but it turns out she's not a Sea Princess at all! She's a Little Mermaid! She didn't have much to say, so SUPERBEEBEE must continue his ongoing quest without her help. |
Berlin
|
|
Episode 21 - Berlin, Germany (Berliner Fernsehturm)
SUPERBEEBEE thought he had backtracked to the Space Needle, but on closer inspection discovered this was a completely different building. At least he's making progress toward finding Scott! |
Rome
|
|
Episode 22 - Rome, Italy (Colisseum)
SUPERBEEBEE found another building with no roof, so he's sure Comic Con isn't here either. Maybe he'd better turn west...Comic Con is starting soon, and STILL NO SCOTT! |
Paris
|
|
Episode 23 - Paris
SUPERBEEBEE has found another tall landmark to inspect, in hopes that it will guide him on his quest to find Scott and the San Diego Comic Con. Yep, very tall, and surrounded by a city full of lights! But still no Scott! |
London
|
|
Episode 24 - London
SUPERBEEBEE is once again on the move! He thought he heard this city calling, but it appears he's been "punked"! Time to make a quick (br)exit and head across another ocean! |
|
|
Episode 25 - New York
7/12/19 SUPERBEEBEE made it across the ocean, and he wanted to ask directions from a Sea Queen who was kind enough to keep a light on for him. Or, so he thought...Not only does she not know where (or who!) Scott is, she isn't even a Sea Queen! SUPERBEEBEE has to keep going! |
|
|
Episode 26 - St. Louis
7/15 SUPERBEEBEE found a likely-looking landmark that almost seems like it is pointing him to the west! There are even people looking out the top! But, none of them is Scott, so SUPERBEEBEE is taking the hint and continuing ever onward! |
|
|
Episode 27 - Art-A-Fair
7/17 SUPERBEEBEE has finally located Scott's last known sighting...but no Scott! Watch the responses from highly respected fellow artists as they are asked, "Where could Scott possibly be?" |
|
Episode 28 - ComicCon
7/18 After following a mass-migration of excited Scott fans, SUPERBEEBEE has finally arrived at San Diego! Our hero is zooming about the city looking for some sign of where Comic Con is being held! |
The videos will be dribbled out for the first few weeks, then more often as ComicCon gets closer. By the last week, they should get published every day leading up to the opening.
