Synopsis:

Based on the smash\-hit audio serial, Bubble<\/i> is a hilarious high\-energy graphic novel with a satirical take on the \x26#34;gig economy.\x26#34;<\/b> Built and maintained by corporate benevolence, the city of Fairhaven is a literal bubble of safety and order (and amazing<\/i> coffee) in the midst of the Brush, a harsh alien wilderness ruled by monstrous Imps and rogue bands of humans. Humans like Morgan, who\x27s Brush\-born and Bubble\-raised and fully capable of fending off an Imp attack during her morning jog. She\x27s got a great routine going\-\-she has a chill day job, she recreationally kills the occasional Imp, then she takes that Imp home for her roommate and BFF, Annie, to transform into drugs as a side hustle. But cracks appear in her tidy life when one of those Imps nearly murders a delivery guy in her apartment, accidentally transforming him into a Brush\-powered mutant in the process. And when Morgan\x27s company launches Huntr, a gig economy app for Imp extermination, she finds herself press\-ganged into kicking her stabby side job up to the next level as she battles a parade of monsters and monstrously Brush\-turned citizens, from a living hipster beard to a book club hive mind.<\/p>
