1-800-Mice Pablo Boffelli working with a vibrantBy Matthew Thurber. Published by PictureBox. Hardcover, 160 pages, B&W, 2011. "1 800 MICE" is Matthew Thurber's comic book anthropological study of the imaginary city of Volcano Park: a cross between Thomas Pynchon, Robert Altman and J. R. R. Tolkien. Over the course of the story we meet Peace Punk, a punker on the verge of a bourgeois lifestyle; Tom Chief, a beat cop with an identity crisis; and Groomfiend, a daffy creature who leads the narrative.
