Monster in My Pocket
(Harvey, 1969, 1991)
™ and ©1991 Harvey Comic Publications
Having licensed the minimonsters, Harvey was faced with the problem of how to get them into someone’s pocket. The solution was to have them all mysteriously shrunk and transported to Los Angeles, where they find a pocket. The backplot concerns a dispute between the warlock and the vampire on whether the monsters should destroy humanity or not, thus resulting in two conflicting groups of miniature monsters. Each searches for the means to restore their true height, and they constantly fall into conflict. The more likeable group is the focus: living with the hapless teenage Jack and hampering his attempts to establish a relationship with the glamorous Tina.
