So what the heck is the Beanworld, anyway?

The Beanworld is unclassifiable.
It's a comic book, but it's unlike everything else. As its creator puts it:

This ain't 'jes another funny animal comic book!

Heck no! Beanworld is different. It's a weird fantasy dimension that operates under its own rules and laws. Beanworld is about the affinity of life. All the characters, whether they are friends or adversaries, understand that ultimately they depend on each other for survival.

It's not just a place, it's a process!
