Crazy future capitalism and slapstick silliness in this silent comic book. I wish I could come up with stories like that.

This graphic novel is Chris Wares meets Terry Gilliam. It details a day in a dystopian society in which dueling corpocracies reign. The concept reminds me gently of David Mitchell's Sonmi-451 portion of Cloud Atlas and fragments of Wall-E, with its relentless focus on company identity. Also the people look funny.

Funny, wordless comic about futuristic rival corporations and an alien visitor. Made me laugh a lot and you can read the whole thing before breakfast.

4 stars for the artwork & the elegant wordless storytelling. 3 stars for the familiar dystopian anti-consumerist narrative, the flat characterization & being too short.
It made me laugh a few times; it's a fun couple hours of reading.
(also, I didn't read the kindle edition. what is this?)
