A young artist takes a job at a department store in order to make ends meet ...little does he know that he may meet his end! In this gothic story for fans of "Black Swan", "Blankets", and "The Devil Wears Prada", can the artist withstand competitive pressure, treachery, and high fashion while still keeping his soul?
- From the artist of The Li''l Depressed Boy, and Amber Benson''sAmong the Ghosts, comes a haunting retail hell story like you''ve neverencountered before! A young artist takes a job at a department store in order tomake ends meet... little does he know that he may meet his end! In this gothicstory for fans of Black Swan, Blankets, and The Devil WearsPrada, can the artist withstand competitive pressure, treachery, and highfashion while still keeping his soul?
Whatdo you get when you put an artist in a department store selling nice clothes,all the while wondering why being so clearly in retail hell doesn''t stop himfrom having a modicum of ambition to move up the fashion food chain? Grace (TheL''il Depressed Boy) draws upon his experience in retail to craft a graphic novelthat gives us a window into the life of an artist who is forced to take a job hedoesn''t really want in order to pay the bills. What make the story so moving areboth the celebration of fashion Grace''s character gives us and the introspectionof the artist as he looks back on the relationships that have served to definehim. While making connections to The Devil Wears Prada is natural, theprotagonist''s reliance on his partner''s understanding and support gets himthrough the retail ordeal. Grace''s attention to form and his skill with visualhyperbole (as in, for example, the saleswoman he depicts as a Skrull) areperfectly suited to the narrative. A sophisticated graphic novel that amplydisplays Grace''s talent for visual storytelling. (Oct.)
