Shanda the Panda #18
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Rocket Horror Picture Show," Shanda the Panda finds herself drawn into a surreal midnight cinema experience as the theater screens the bizarre cult film of the same name. Intercut with the movie’s eerie, surreal scenes—featuring human versions of classic Rocky and Bullwinkle characters like Natasha, Boris, and Sherman—the story blurs the line between fiction and reality in a way that’s both unsettling and strangely familiar. Written by Mike Curtis and brought to life with sharp, expressive art by Carla Speed McNeil (who also handled the cover pencils and inks), this 1997 issue offers a uniquely strange take on nostalgia and horror, all wrapped in a cover that’s as bold as the story inside.
In "Rocket Horror Picture Show," Jo and a crowd of animal friends gather at a dimly lit theater for a midnight screening of a cult favorite, its eerie reels interwoven with the zany antics of classic cartoon characters like Boris, Natasha, and Sherman—drawn here as humans in a surreal, satirical twist. The story thrums with playful dread and nostalgic absurdity, as the line between screen and audience begins to blur in the most delightfully ridiculous way.
