In this first issue, we've got stories bursting out all over:
Eno & Plum (the main characters) star in the stroke-of-genius story, "You Can Bank on it." Eno discovers that he can make money as a sperm donor, and soon becomes famous for the quantity and quality of his, um, donations. Can he win a "donating" competition against a fat, pimply fanboy?
"Mickey Pimple, Teen Adventurer" is an action-adventure story in which Mickey, a character who bears an odd resemblance to Tintin, narrowly escapes the dreaded girl pirates of the Malay Coast; refuses the advances of the Serpent Woman; unknowingly protects a CIA heroin-smuggling operation; rescues and is rescued by young Artemis Urethra (daughter of millionaire shipping magnate Georgio Urethra) and her bodyguard, Geraldine "Bulldagger" Jones; and pals around with Barney, his bass-ackwards dog.
Eno & Plum's pal, Angie O'Plastey, is an obnoxious li'l skinhead-punk gal. When she gets fired from her coffee-shop job for having a bad attitude, she becomes fixated on revenge! She starts a gang war, then creates the cafe's newest flavor sensation -- with a little help from the city's sewer system!
Plum's dad, Seymour Riverpeace, is an aging-hippie-turned-wealthy-entrepreneur who's usually busy smoking giant spleefs around his office. In "Where is the Dope of Yesteryear?" Seymour takes Eno & Plum to visit his cryogenic weed-storage vault. When dad hauls out some ancient pot he bought at Woodstock, he discovers a thorny problem: how do you get vengeance on somebody who sold you bad dope 25 years ago?
How many comics give you that much story in less than 32 pages, huh? It's so much fun, it doesn't have to just be your favorite comic -- it can be your best friend! Any way you look at it, Cud Comics will leave you with something to chew on.
