Wild Palms

Argumento

It's 2007. Harry Wyckoff is a lawyer who gets sucked into the secret society of Wild Palms - a cabal of fascist thugs and virtual reality visionaries led by the charismatic senator Anton 'Tony' Kreutzer. Kreutzer wishes to control the minds of his followers ("New Realists") and the destiny of the world through drugs (Mimezine), religion (Synthiotics) and television. Harry Wyckoff must fight for the life of his mind as he's flung into a nightmare of smoke and funhouse mirrors; his struggle can only lead to tragedy... or transcendence. In this brave new world, interactive sitcoms commune with death squads, Japanese mythology and Brian Wilson: nothing is real.

Here, collected for the first time, is the cartoon strip from Details magazine that inspired the eponymous critically acclaimed television series that rocked the foundations of the cult of the cathode ray.
