The action and hilarity continue in the second volume of this comic convention apocalypse adventure series!Journalist Victor Lai and his comics publicist friend Dez Delaney have clawed, crawled, and occasionally golf-carted their way across a crowded post-apocalyptic convention floor in search of a way out. Along the way they've discovered a fledgling resistance movement of cosplaying superheroes led by Dez’s former boss, Helvetica Caslon. She's got one last assignment: find the Special Guest and liberate the con. All that's in the way is a labyrinth of surreal panel rooms, literal personality cults, at least two warring fandom factions, and a totally biased gatekeeping system run by pedantic internet trolls. Can Dez and Victor convince the Special Guest to give up the utopia he’s created? Or are the pros of this con on a crash course to doomsday?

FOREWORD -- A decidedly non-superhero "teambook," Cellies is the fun and briskly paced story of six employeesof a mobile phone retail store. Led by their gung-ho but slightly dim manager,Christian, the Jog Mobile crew attempt to manage their personal lives alongsidetheir work commitments, which include dealing with difficult customers andmanaging the midnight launch of a new phone. Cellies collects the firstfive issues of Lion Forge's comic book series, whose central charactersrepresent a variety of ethnicities, backgrounds, and personalities, providingfertile ground for story development. In a minor but inspired ongoing feature,the book offers short vignettes inspired by true-life retail experiences. Intotal, Cellies feels like a successful ensemble TV sitcom, and the bookends with a cliffhanger of sorts, as Reyhaab, a teenager from a strict religiousfamily, faces punishment from her parents for lying to them, and Christiansuffers from the effects of an overlong tanning session. Flood's clean,confident art style and practiced narrative abilities balance propelling theplot and delivering humor, while also choosing appropriate moments to hint atwhat's underneath the sometimes shallow exteriors of his characters; one getsthe impression that there are plenty of stories left for Flood to tell inCellies: Volume Two and beyond.
