Mutant Cats: Volume 1 - A Sci-Fi Comedy Graphic Novel
A sci-fi comedy graphic novel about cats, corporate greed, and the interdimensional apocalypse no one asked for.
Mutant Labs is your typical science lab. They do work on rockets, gene splicing, finding cures, and you know...interdimensional energy type stuff.
The company is working on their biggest breakthrough a renewable energy device strong enough to power a city block, small enough to fit in the palm of your paw ― about the size of a ball of yarn ― that draws power from alternate planes of existence. It's complicated, but it works. Trust us. They're calling The Cluster.
But hubris is always a problem. The higher-ups want The Cluster ready "yesterday," forcing project leader Flux and his team of idiot geniuses to cut corners. Shortcuts are dangerous when you're messing with interdimensional energy. Realities start overlapping, and welcome to the Mutantverse.
It's a real cluster fu@%.
Selected as a Publisher's Weekly Must-Read, Spring 2024.
Perfect for fans Rick and Morty, Futurama, Invincible, The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, and anyone who's ever wondered what would happen if cats ran a science lab.

Coming on like a book coloured, written and prepared by and for ten year olds, this does settle down into something more amenable. A bunch of humanoid cats are experimenting on some weird energy source, when BAMF, it goes wrong, some weird zombie things that are supposed to look like the cats (except they completely fail to do so) emerge from some other corner of the multiverse, and the now-wrecked energy supply has to be readied not only for the commercial roll-out but to get the zombies back home.
What this isn't is funny, nuanced, or well-made, but it's not dreadful. It gets silly for silly's sake – it knows it is to succeed with young teenaged boys and nobody else – and unapologetically doesn't care about being that coherent. Heck, it pretends like we know this franchise and these characters of old when this is the first we've heard of them. (Or probably is, I should say.) The very randomness of it all means I'd be forced to give it two and a half stars, but as I say it's not a complete waste of paper.

Totally and completely warped. If that is you, this is the book you want to read. I am not that person. There are a few funny moments, but overall the gross out effect was too much for my tastes. If I was the person who likes over the topness, this would be a four.
