This was an interesting little comic about a man with so much money, he doesn't know what to do with it. He seems to use it more to torment his wife and business rival more than anything until his jewel shows up in the form of a mermaid.
He buys her for an incredibly inflated price that he tags her with himself and then builds her a tank in a room in his mansion.
Meanwhile, his wife and accountant are cheating on him and trying to swindle him out of his money.
This was a fun little story, but it was uneven as the characters seemed too malleable and inconsistent. I was left with no characters that I liked or really cared about except for maybe the mermaid.
The art was pretty decent, but nothing really stood out.
For a fully independent book, it wasn't bad and I'm glad I read it and will read others by them in the future. I see some sparks here that I hope can be nurtured into a blaze.
