Denizens of Deep City

    (Kitchen Sink, 1988)
©1988 Doug Potter

Denizens of Deep City is a story about a city and the people who live there. Admittedly quirky, it still has got all the basics conflicts of comicdom. There is crime, as a low-key man comes home and finds his TV has been kidnapped. It has class struggle, as a woman finds that her new apartment doesn’t have a medicine cabinet, and that the landlord she signed a five-year lease with couldn’t care less. She then organizes a protest march for medicine cabinets in apartments. It has love, as a policeman sent to break up the medicine cabinet march falls for the lovely protest organizer. Finally, there’s death when the accountant, who could never sleep without the Carson show, goes crazy and shoots the newspaper boy.

And heck, that’s only the first issue!
