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.
