Publisher Description.  Tony Millionaire – winner of FIVE EISNER AWARDS, three Harvey Awards, and an Ignatz – is the visionary cartoonist behind the critically acclaimed Sock Monkey graphic novels and the world-renowned Maakies comic strip.

And those are the words he used to describe the masterwork that marks his long-awaited return to the comics world this April — The Oddball’s Odyssey.

Collaborating with superstar colorist Jim Campbell (Over The Garden Wall), Millionaire nimbly fuses the master storytelling of Homer’s The Odyssey with the surreal beauty and intricately rendered linework of Moebius’s Arzach to deliver a breathtaking work of art destined for the comic canon.

Divine providence has finally done what no hangover ever could – Bobby Dougherty is sober.  But fate works fast and it’s not long until Bobby tumbles back off the wagon.  A single glance at the radiant swan Lucia Serena DelMar leaves the former booze-hound monkey drunk on love and hopelessly devoted.  When Lucia takes flight, Bobby refuses to let his chance at love slip through his fingers.  Joined by his faithful friend Jimmy Skunk, he sets off on a perilous journey across distant lands – through impossible labyrinths, over treacherous seas and into the path of a vicious, fire-spitting minotaur in an epic quest to win Lucia’s heart.
