Master graphic novelist Dave Sim - the creator of Cerebus - returns! Glamourpuss is three comic books in one: a parody of fashion magazines, a history of photorealism in comics (starting with Alex Raymond's Rip Kirby in 1946), and the strangest super-heroine comic book of all time! Featuring the first appearance of Glamourpuss, her evil twin sister Skanko, and the heroine's long-time therapist Dr. Norm. Available with two covers - a 'Comics Edition' with a classic EC-style cover, and a 'Fashion Edition' that parodies fashion magazines.
There is absolutely nothing resembling a plot - by design. The first issue is a strange hybrid of Sim's revelations on 'photorealistic art' and the beginnings of an adventure story revolving around a perfectly-vapid but perfectly-dressed titular heroine.
