"Bedtime Banter" is a delightfully absurd tale from Basil Wolverton, whose singular art and writing style bring to life Frink Clinkslink’s surreal journey from job-hopping to a bizarre new life in Goofinia—where the word “feet” means “peanuts.” With his signature surreal flair, Wolverton crafts a story where dreams and language collide in unexpected ways, all drawn and inked with his unmistakable, off-kilter energy. The cover, also by Wolverton, captures the story’s whimsical dread in bold, exaggerated lines.
