Dover Graphic Novels: Private Beach

＂Quirky, edgy, and immediately likeable ... [an] enjoyable blend of humor, suspense, and social commentary.＂ -- Friction magazine
Everyday life takes on touches of the bizarre in these tales of sexy and cynical Trudy Honeyvan and her circle of twenty-something friends. From oddball coincidences to occasional UFO sightings to an ominously cryptic message from a Magic 8 Ball, Trudy’s world is becoming increasingly weird -- right up to the point when a pair of mysterious men in black ask her to ＂lend ambiance＂ to a nightclub called Heaven’s Rift.
These entertainingly dark stories were nominated for Eisner and Harvey Awards. Combining elements of science-fiction adventure, political satire, and soap opera, the series was described by comicbookresources.com as ＂slice-of-life stories in a universe David Lynch fans would recognize.＂
This collection reprints the original seven issues and adds a brand-new 30-page conclusion by series creator David Hahn -- the finale to Trudy’s cliff-hanger encounter with a cult and a resolution that fans have awaited for fifteen years. Also included is a new Foreword by Jeff Parker, author of X-Men: First Class.
Suggested for mature readers.
