Looks like John Cox, one of my favorite cartoonists, is thinking about creating a graphic novel (that’s a highbrow comic for you book-of-the-monthers) featuring “Detective Frank Pound, world-weary crime fighter for The Burg.” I love John’s ‘toons and see this as a success waiting to be born.
He claims it’s just an idea he’s toying with, but if this first panel is any indication, he’s given it serious thought. He’s even begun character development: “Missy,” for example, “is a tragic story of re-animation and a soul gone bad. She’s a doll that’s come back from ‘the dead’ and she’s not happy about it.”
I’m telling you, I think John’s on to something! Anyway, here’s the first panel. Whaddaya think?
