Why Are You Doing This
Author: Jason
A full-color existential thriller from the creator of Hey, Wait... Imagine a long-forgotten, never-produced Alfred Hitchcock "wrong man" thriller screenplay discovered, adapted and filmed by a modern minimalist like Jim Jarmusch and you'll have some idea as the unique flavor of Jason's latest graphic novel, Why Are You Doing Thi...  more » The protagonist, a moody twenty-something wallowing in depression after a breakup with his long-time girlfriend, finds himself drawn into a paranoid's worst nightmare after his best friend is murdered and the blame is pinned on him. With the help of a single mother who spontaneously throws in her lot with him (not to mention her precocious daughter), he sets out to clear his name. Soon new relationships are forged, dark secret from the past are revealed, and the real killer comes back into the picture...with a vengeance. Although in many ways completely different from such earlier works of Jason's as Hey, Wait..., You Can't Get There from Here and The Iron Wagon (for one thing, it's in full color), Why Are You Doing This? displays the same familiar laconic wit, stylized anthropomorphic characters, and elegant storytelling as these earlier masterpieces.
