Trip’s Over
Here’s another of the minis that Luis sent over recently, and it’s a very short thing. The presentation was impressive, with cardboard covers and a story that continues on the back of the pages after you flip the comic over. Eh, it’s complicated, you should see it for yourself. Anyway, it’s the story of a story that Luis was told by his mother when he was a kid. She was with some family when they got the news (or she gave the news, it’s not completely clear) that their mother had died. They went to an undertaker (or the equivalent) and were told that the cost to transport the body was astronomical. It was too much money for the family and they ended up with an alternate plan to transport the body. Luis mentions in the intro that even though he believed the story at the time, in hindsight it’s probably an urban legend. Considering the fact that I’ve heard this story myself, I’d say that that’s a safe bet. Still, it’s a darkly funny story, and that reaction shot at the end was worth the price of admission all by itself. No idea about the price, so I’m going with the thoroughly random price of $4.
