BURIAL KING
A midday film screening entwines the lives of eccentric theatre attendees in this subversively funny graphic novel from Raphael Iacocca. Meet a cast of cinema patrons, employees, and even the film’s characters, all caught in the centre of a troubled cartoonist’s nightmare. There’s Max, the jitterboned kitten who befriends an evil skeleton in the cinema foyer; Kennedy, the cornsilk country girl–turned–highbrow theatre manager, hiding her molasses-tongue from colleagues; and Warrick, the tragic leading man of our midday movie, chasing down his deceased brother’s stolen corpse. A romping metaphorical horror that crescendos when a beer-drunk film projectionist reveals himself as the puppet master behind it all.
PIZZA COMICS
Pizza Comics was birthed on N.Y.E. on the sandy shore of Mooloolaba 2022. We produce printed entertainment for thinking readers and believe surreal visions and insightful self-scrutinization are fodder for excellent books. “The roaring 2020s deserve a new yet reverent update to the underground comics, pulps, and chapbooks of the 20th century!”
