In "Blooperman," Jerry Seagull and Joe Shoestring—comic book dreamers with a flair for the absurd—concoct a wild theory: that Frankenstein, their favorite monster, can actually fly, just like their own creation, Blooperman. Their over-the-top imagination blurs the line between fiction and reality, setting off a series of increasingly ridiculous events.
