Book excerpt: Tony Millionaire, creator of Sock Monkey and one of America's most popular weekly comic strips,Maakies, delivers his first original graphic novel for Fantagraphics, Billy Hazelnuts. Billy Hazelnutstransmutes nursery rhymes and the golem myth into a storybook about Becky, girl scientist, her friend Billy Hazelnuts (who was created from cooking ingredients by tailless mice), and their journey to find the missing moon while battling an evil steam-driven alligator with a seeing-eye skunk. Millionaire fuses the darker spirit of older fairy tales with an absurdist adventure story, throws gender politics into the mix, and brings it to life with his dementedly charming and meticulous drawing style that is utterly transporting.
