Umma is the owner of an artist's representation agency, specializing in the
scouting and promoting of freaks in the world of entertainment. But her business
takes a plunge when an interplanetary corporation launches its new product, a
so-called "Make Your Pet" (MYP) kit, which enables any kid to create a
biological phenomenon in his own garage. But the same kit can be used illicitly
to alter human DNA, and when a reward is offered to anyone who can find the
first human clone created with the MYP kit, and thus uncloak Siba's diabolical
agenda, Umma joins in the crusade, seeing in it a way to destroy the competition
and save her agency. A mindbending satirical cyberbunk maelstrom, Genetic Grunge
features the dazzling talent of Zalozabal, a creator who, along with co-writer
Roberto Bayeto, conjures a totally immersive, visually stunning environment.
Edgy and hallucinatory and yet breathtakingly three-dimensional, Genetic Grunge
is another distinctive Venture graphic album, featuring the finest graphic
fiction the world has to offer, and available in limited quantities and for the
first time in an English-language edition.
