Synopsis

Weathercraft: A Frank Comic

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur :

Weathercraft features hypnotically gorgeous linework and mystical iconography. As it happens, Frank has only a brief supporting appearance in Weathercraft, which actually stars Manhog, Woodring's pathetic, brutish everyman (or everyhog), who had previously made several appearances in Frank's stories (as well as a stunning solo turn in the short story “Gentlemanhog”). After enduring 32 pages of almost incomprehensible suffering, Manhog embarks upon a transformative journey and attains enlightenment. He wants to go to celestial realms but instead altruistically returns to the unifactor to undo a wrong he has inadvertently brought about: The transformation of the evil politician Whim into a mind-destroying plant-demon who distorts and enslaves Frank and his friends. The new and metaphysically expanded Manhog sets out for a final battle with Whim... Weathercraft also co-stars Frank's cast of beloved supporting characters, including Faux Pa and the diminutive, mailbox-like Pupshaw and Pushpaw.

He wants to go to celestial realms but instead returns to the Unifactor to undo a wrong he has brought about: the transformation of the evil politician Whim into a mind-destroying plant demon. Manhog sets out for a final battle with Whim...
