COMIC BOOK VILLAINS (2002)

JAMES ROBINSON

Plot

A comic book collector dies and leaves his highly desirable collection in the capable hands of his mother, what follows is an increasingly desperate attempt by two very disparate comic book shop owners to wrestle the golden hoard away from an elderly woman who is determined to make sure they don't. Comic Book Villains is an offbeat comedy drama that swings successfully between farce, pathos and satire, smarter than it looks and as daft as it sounds
