The Big Break

In The Big Break (2020–present, Little, Brown), a single-issue debut from writer-artist Mark Tatulli, a down-on-his-luck comic book creator gets a shot at Hollywood success when his gritty indie property is optioned for a major motion picture. The story satirizes the entertainment industry's adaptation machine, blending Tatulli's signature dark humor with sharp commentary on the clash between artistic integrity and commercial demands. This standalone graphic novel matters as a pointed, insider's look at the often-absurd process of turning comics into movies, delivered by a creator known for his work on Liō and Heart of the City.
