IDW PUBLISHING FOR OCTOBER

KID LOBOTOMY #1

Peter Milligan (W), Tess Fowler (A/C), Frank Quitely (VC). 


Kafka meets King Lear by way of Young Frankenstein in Kid Lobotomy, a dark, demented, monthly satire that follows a dysfunctional family of hoteliers. Will sibling rivalry, seduction, and shapeshifting eventually lead to sanity or salvation?

Big Daddy is a rich hotelier who, in a cracked echo of King Lear, appoints his youngest descendant to manage The Suites, a peculiar hotel located behind the Black Crown Pub. Affectionately known as Kid, his good looks and swagger can't hide a rough childhood of strange therapies and brain operations that have awakened inner demons and psychodramas. This of course makes him eminently qualified to perform lobotomies. A failed rockstar/successful madman gets one last change to prove his worth--and regain his sanity--by turning the hotel that was once his childhood sanctuary into a lucrative business, despite a host of obstacles -- including his own sister--who would love nothing more than to see him fail miserably.
