Synopsis

Untitled Ape (a giant purple ghost-beast) has decided he needs to see his family. His friend Cat (a cat) doesn't think it's a particularly good idea, but at this very moment a massive storm rolls in, and their epic adventure begins. Without a map or much of a plan, they journey through flooded cities and stormy seas, across frozen plains and snowy mountains, and even up into the world of the clouds on their quest to find Ape's home in the jungle. Along the way they make the acquaintance of a cast of incredible characters, who both help and hinder them to equal degree.

About this title

Review:

"A graphic novel that is entirely at ease with its own cynical wit and one that will undoubtedly propel Tillotson perhaps one of the UK small press scene's most undervalued mainstays to a whole new level of deserved recognition." - Andy Oliver, Broken Frontier

"Steve Tillotson is genuinely an original voice in the sea of indie and small press comics and I've been a fan of his work for over a decade now. This is a step up once again in quality for this writer/artist... A genuinely original voice in the sea of indie and small press comics." - Tony Esmond, Down the Tubes

"Comically juxtaposing the mythical and mysterious with the mundane." - Page 45

"If you're already into Jeffrey Brown or if you know a kid that hasn't yet discovered the magnificent and depressing state that Chris Ware's strips can leave you in, then perhaps Steve Tillotson is a good place to start." - --Liv Siddall, It's Nice That..
