No Escape This Mime!

Escape artist extraordinaire Lucky Lucy finds herself literally in the clutches of her nemesis Silencieux. Is this peril all in her mind or does his mime magic actually make it possible for him to shrink and hold her in his gloved hands? Either way how can she possibly hope to escape?

Lucy is a manipulation and coloring of a black and white drawing by .

The mime is a manipulation of commissioned artwork from a role play friend.


The final result reminds me of the metaphorical sort of comic covers that suggest a theme more than illustrate an actual scene. This could be a cover for a Lucky Lucy comic in which her entire adventure is a struggle to escape the clutches of her arch nemesis, the villainous mime, Silencieux. Will our heroine be fondled by giant fingers and displayed like an insect in a bell jar? Will Lucy cleverly devise some strenuously acrobatic escape route only to have the effort end in the sudden snap of a mousetrap? Sounds like an idea for a deliciously devious issue doesn't it?
