Words for the wise from the mouth of a fool.

“There’s an attempt on President Grover Cleveland’s life after he’s attended a command performance of the Greatest Show on Earth -- the Barnum and Bailey Circus. P.T. Barnum is deputized by the President, along with the Congress of Anomalies, to find out who is behind it. Our heroes ultimately uncover a dastardly conspiracy to divide the country at the Rocky Mountains.

“This is twenty-some years after the Civil War; the emotional wounds and the political fallout from the war between the states is still fresh. America could never withstand another conflict of such magnitude. The conspirators form a cabal financed by the world’s wealthiest men, manipulated by Nikola Tesla."


You know, I was sold just by the title and the piece of art I saw six months ago. But with this article BARNUM! shoots to the top of the list of graphic novels I can't wait to read.
