Keywords: High technology. No nature. Artifical reality.
Synopsis: A guy and a girl decide to spend free day in
a nature. They relax totally and refuse brain pills. Hangover is not what they expect.
Comment: Corben's own story and B&W artwork are both brilliant.
There is a lot pleasant nudity, specially on page four, where it touches
with a warm relationship between guy and girl (frames without dialogue).
One of my favourites!
