Zot! #21
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Can't Buy Me Love," Zot finds himself caught in a sticky situation when he signs an endorsement deal with the flashy Bingo Pop, unaware that the contract includes a clause binding him to never portray the new owner, the Blotch, in a negative light. Written, drawn, and inked by Scott McCloud—whose distinctive style brings both humor and tension to the page—this 1988 Eclipse issue explores the odd pressures of fame and corporate influence. The cover, also by McCloud, captures the moment with a sharp, stylized flair.
Zot lands a flashy endorsement deal with Bingo Pop, but soon finds himself tangled in a clause that bars him from making the new owner, the Blotch, look bad in public—putting his heroics in a tricky spot. With Jenny Weaver watching closely and Peabody offering his usual mix of advice and skepticism, Zot must navigate the absurd pressures of celebrity while keeping his true identity—and his principles—intact.
