Alan Moore continues to shape, mould and batter the superhero genre with this second satirical and sly collection of
Tomorrow Stories
! Featuring liquid avenger Splash Brannigan, comely crimebuster Cobweb, super-powered buffoon First American, child inventor Jack B. Quick, and gentleman sleuth Greyshirt, these are stories for tomorrow... and the day after... and the day after that!
Ink-credible hero Splash Brannigan, drawn by Hilary Barta (
Plastic Man
), takes on pop art, alternate dimensions, comics conventions and the world of rock 'n' roll in four hilarious tales!
The gorgeous, voluptuous Cobweb, as illustrated by Melinda Gebbie (
Lost Girls
) Joyce Chin (
Elektra
) and Dame Darcy (
Meat Cake
), travels to the future and the swinging sixties, enters the worlds of fairytale and fantasy, and teams up with the grim avenger Greyshirt!
The genetically-engineered goof First American, featuring the dynamic drawings of Jim Baikie (
Skizz
), recounts his glorious career, films a TV special, runs for President (and wins!), offers a door into his psyche, and features in a very special imaginary — or is it idiotic — story!
Child prodigy Jack B. Quick single-handedly repels an alien invasion and fights his greatest nemesis yet — the onset of puberty — in two tales drawn by the peerless Kevin Nowlan (
Moon Knight
)!
Hard-boiled investigator Greyshirt — as rendered by Rick Veitch (
Swamp Thing
) —
takes a deadly taxi ride, gets lost in thought, faces off against a sapphire stunner, and even appears in his own musical number!
