Tomorrow Stories #1
"Smalltown Stardom" kicks off with a delightfully absurd premise: when Jack’s mischievous streak leads to a pig uprising, his parents try a new approach by giving him a cat—only to find their pet quickly multiplies into a flock of anti-gravity felines, their backs coated in butter and floating above the town. Alan Moore’s quirky storytelling, brought to vivid life by Kevin Nowlan’s distinctive art and coloring (with Bad@$$ on colors), turns a small-town oddity into something wonderfully surreal, all culminating in a whimsical, physics-defying showdown with the original rebellious pigs.

After Jack causes the local pigs to revolt, his parents give him a pet cat hoping it will be a good influence on him; somehow, this leads to Jack creating a multitude of cats which develop anti-gravity (from butter on their backs) and hover over the town. All's well that ends well when the cats fall on the revolutionary pigs.
