LOCAL #2

By Brian Wood and Ryan Kelly.

"Polaroid Boyfriend." While Megan's at work, he finds her hidden key and lets himself in to her apartment, spending the day reading her books, rummaging around, and relaxing on her bed. He's gone when she comes home, leaving behind short love notes scrawled on the backs of the photographs he takes of himself. Is this just sick, twisted stalker games, or is he Megan McKeenan's new "Polaroid Boyfriend"? The second issue in this new series of stand-alone stories brings us to Minneapolis, Minnesota, LOCAL artist Ryan Kelly's hometown.
