Nouns - David Leach - Bog

The most insanely funny, manic and relentlessly silly comic book in decades! Imagine the Marx Brothers meets Hellzapoppin' meets Apocalypse Now meets Death in Venice, if Venice was an insane theme-park designed by Sid and Marty Krofft! NOUNS: NOUNTOWN, the first full-length graphic novel to feature the digital characters known only as Nouns. The Nouns are strangely headed characters featuring a bizarre range of heads who arrived one day through a mysterious portal from a dimension called the Noun-a-sphere, baring no malice, no malevolency and absolutely zero sinister intent they were happily accepted into the society. This first adventure sees seven of the Nouns set out on a pilgrimage to visit their spiritual home NOUNTOWN, a humongous theme park built in the middle of nowhere run by their seemingly kindly benefactor Uncle Bob, the first human the Nouns ever came into contact with. But unbeknown to the Nouns, Uncle Bob has a sinister agenda. He together with a cabal of fast-food conglomerates are determined to save the planet from ecological disaster by eradicating all meat consumption and converting the world to a meat free diet Noun-based diet! Think Soylent Green but with a bunch of cute little muppets! Now the only thing stopping the world from eating the Nouns into extinction are seven unbelievably stupid, gullible and clueless Nouns, and a jar of pickles long past their sale-by-date.
