Uncanny Valley
Saturday morning cartoons meet the real world and comic fantasy in a Who Framed Roger Rabbit? for a new generation!
Oliver is different. His mother’s history in Burbank, California isn’t the only thing that sets him apart from other 12-year-olds–he has unexplainable, campy powers that more often than not land him in trouble… But the most outlandish and astonishing is yet to come, as a dark presence pursues Oliver from the most whimsical recesses of the unknown… and the strange and mysterious past of his family will be more than he ever could have imagined. Harvey Award-nominated writer Tony Fleecs (Stray Dogs) and acclaimed artist Dave Wachter (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles) bring this multi-dimensional crossover coming-of-age fantasy to life and remind us that when cartoons get real, the truth is stranger than celluloid. Collects Uncanny Valley #1-6.
