Rattus

A wordless comic I did for The Sketchbook Project. The original hand drawn comic is stored in a library of sketchbooks at the Brooklyn Museum. In 1630s Netherlands, during Tulipomania, the Bubonic Plague outbreak had an effect on the auctioning of precious Semper Augustus Tulip bulbs, causing a huge market crash. In the comic, sentient plague rats and their shapeshifting spokesman are tracked down by a time traveling bounty huntress.
