A hilarious story of a time when an date night that went very wrong. Sixteen year old Derrick Tanner is at his girlfriend’s house, her annoying younger brother has been put to bed and the two start to make out when a noise alerts the girl that her parents have returned way before they were expected. A brilliantly told farce follows.
No one is injured or hurt, there is a strong awareness that the events of the evening could easily have taken a much more dangerous turn. The danger is just enough to be hilarious in the retelling and felt strongly at the time.
The art by T.N.M.G. takes the story and delivers it with wonderful care and attention, the little extras are just perfect. The lines of the art are so expressive they give life and energy to the cast, they take the words and infuse them with an extra layer of comedy that is a pleasure to read.
This is a very short little comic, a simple story told with such flair and accuracy that it just resonates. It will remind any reader of uncomfortable episode in their own lives that has managed to become distant enough to be funny.
