VAUDEVILLAINS Volume One
The year is 1999—top hats and tailcoats are still all the rage, yet Pelican airships soar the skies, ladies in bouffant dresses and rocketshoes race home to attend telecinema performances, all while staying in touch by morsing back-and-forth on their pocket radiophones. Two young street urchins named Iver and Harvey have escaped from an orphanage doubling as an illegal workhouse, fleeing to the mountainous French terrain bordering Switzerland.

Like BONE meets BioShock, this cartoon book calls to mind the lively movement of classical animation from the 1940s and 50s, blending broad slapstick humour with a nostalgic view of the anxieties and predictions about the new millennium.

Contributors to this volume pay attention to state authorities but also to the voices and experiences of te...

In the aftermath of war, Corporal Luke Bowen, US army, survived the worldwide conflict between Eastern and Western cultures. He was present when the most horrible scenes played out. Near the end of the war, the United States dropped a tactical nuclear bomb close to its own lines to stop an enemy suicide attack. Somehow, he made it out of the conflict, but at a substantial cost. Recovering in a field hospital, he discovered that his injuries, although life-changing, were not as devastating as those around him affected by the nuclear radiation. After rehabilitation, Luke chose the army as a career. No longer capable of serving in the infantry, he was assigned a desk job in the new frontier of ...
