New Yorkers have quickly become "believers" as hordes of SWEETIE'S fans adoringly line up outside the wildly popular lower east side "SWEETIE CANDY VIGILANTE" sweet shop, anxiously waiting to savor the latest delectable SWEET TREAT drop. "DREC ACTION! NEWS," the namesake news network of a corporate media conglomerate owned and controlled by the corrupt mayor of NYC crashes the party and quickly gets schooled that it's impolite to show up without an invite! It's clear to Candy Wolf, Pixie, and Tinsel that the news crew's objective is to stage an ambush interview with SWEETIE, the Candy Vigilante squad, and their newly minted fans, with the intent of maligning Sweetie and her business on nationally syndicated TV. At the helm is the mayor's self-centered, saccharine-laced daughter-turned-news anchor, Athena Dreck. Acting under direct orders from her love interest (and Sweetie's arch-nemesis) - the dour, perpetual schemer, crime lord Bart Volgare - Athena arrives at the shop with camera crew in tow to portray the uplifting sweets as "unhealthy" and "addictive." Unfazed, our GOOD-natured Sweetie lets the "jelly roll" and flips Athena's script. Awe-struck and caught in Sweetie's hypnotic gaze, does Athena believe in her magic? Will she "bite" on Sweetie's challenge to sample her latest treats while on LIVE TV, inevitably revealing to her viewers if she's a good witch or a bad witch...? Will the Mayor and Bart feel the sweet heat of the people? Is Bart's obsession with Sweetie unjustified? Is her mission to bring the sweetness back to the city a clear and present danger to Volgare's unsavory power and greed? Much to the displeasure of the salty lords of corruption, something within Sweetie's delicacies is having an incredibly GOOD impact on the population of NYC, and in the process, she's becoming more powerful! DOES SWEETIE HAVE A KRYPTONITE - AND IS BART ON THE TRAIL OF IT? PICK UP VOL. 2, ISSUE #4, "THE CITY THAT ALWAYS SWEETS," TO FIND OUT ALL THIS AND LOTS MORE GUMDROPS! Also includes a FREE MP3 download of "THE LAND OF HATCHY MILATCHY," the new single by OSAKA POPSTAR recorded specifically for this series! Isn't that NICE?
