Hooked on a Victorian

This is the second part of the five part groups of graphic novels first published as seperate comics by Penny farthing.As an acknowledged comic/graphic novel geek I have found this collection of works to be really different.True you have your usual villian and hero but it is the way the book is worked that makes it different.In this particular collection the real reason for the jackass fake note is made clear .The question is asked what is money ?The answer it is a belief that this little piece of paper will allow the holder to aquire certain goods.it in and of itself is nothing more than a piece of paper worthless unless believed in.As Philosophy student this hit a cord in that why is money so important?The book further follows the work of Lazslo and his finding if the philospher Niezsche allone in the Basement of the Blue rose college.Why is he there ,when he is believed dead? This is a brilliant graphic novel ,although hard to colelct all 5 books now it is worth the hunt
