☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Petuniacon Day Three: The Ambassador Suite," Daniel Smith crafts a quietly devastating chapter as Cathy attempts to share her world through drawings and words—only for her innocent exploration to unravel into a moment of startling revelation. With every line drawn and lettered by Smith himself, the story unfolds with the intimate precision of a diary, capturing a child’s fragile understanding of truth. The cover, by Dave Sim, frames this emotional turning point with a stark, evocative image that lingers long after the page turns.
In "The Road to Greatness!" from Cerebus: High Society #14, Bob dreams of becoming a great comic book writer, but his ambitions clash with his publisher’s increasingly outrageous demands for more profanity and topless women in his superhero stories. The story satirizes the commercial pressures of the industry with sharp, self-aware humor.
In "null," Jo watches silently as Cathy, a quiet child, attempts to share her world through drawings and hesitant words—only for the moment to shift into something heavier, as Cathy stumbles upon a secret that fractures the home she knew.
