Description
This wordless collection of strips by renowned
artist/designer Rian Hughes reveals the lighter side of our obsession with
social rankings.
When everyone has a number,
everyone knows their place. Lower numbers are better, higher numbers are less
important, and that's just the way it is. But what if that number could change?
You might try to buck the system and assert your individuality... or you might
end up with a big fat zero.
Big questions are
explored and unexpected answers found in the first solo comics collection from
award-winning designer & illustrator Rian Hughes. His whimsical, witty, and
insightful strips will make you both smile and consider. Where do you stand in
the pecking order? Is your number up?
