A brilliant parable about literature, history and what telling stories tells us about ourselves. (Toronto Star)\"A provocative collision.\" (Entertainment Weekly)\"Disconcerting and fascinating... a canny fusion of overlapping fictional legacies.\" (Globe and Mail)Masterpiece Comics adapts a variety of classic literary works with the most iconic visual idioms of twentieth-century comics. Dense with exclamation marks and lurid zip-a-tone, R. Sikoryak's parodies remind us of the sensational excesses of the canon, or, if you prefer, of the economical expressiveness of classic comics from Superman to Peanuts. In \"Blond Eve,\" Dagwood and Blondie are ejected from the Garden of Eden into their archetypal suburban home; Oscar Wilde's Dorian Gray is re-imagined as a foppish Winsor McCay character; and Camus' Stranger as a brooding, chain-smoking Golden Era Superman.
