“Talk Is Cheap”

In "Talk Is Cheap," Moronica takes on a new role as a city street cleaner—only to put her own spin on the job by rearranging fire hydrants, traffic signs, and other fixtures to make the street "look nicer," just as she does when she spring-cleans her apartment. Her creative touch, however, leads to yet another dismissal. The story, illustrated with energetic detail by Owen Fitzgerald, captures Moronica’s quirky charm and stubborn independence in a quietly absurd urban setting.
