<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>In a near-future America, happiness isn't just a right--it's the law. A timely satire by superstar writer Peter Milligan (X-Statix, The Prisoner) and artist Michael Montenat (Dominion, Hellraiser Annual).</b> <p/>In future America, being happy isn't just a right--it's the law. While the Joy Police brutally enforce the cheery code, two young people go on the run, searching for a haven of melancholy where they can safely bask in the blues. A timely tale by superstar writer Peter Milligan (X-Statix, The Prisoner) and artist Michael Montenat (Dominion, Hellraiser Annual). <p/><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"A timely and necessary story.... Part One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest and part 1984, Happy Hour is a biting satire that explores societal pressures to project false happiness. Written by Peter Milligan, with art by Michael Montenat, it is a comic series that seamlessly melds the writer's ideas with the artist's designs, with the biting commentary and dialogue nicely met by the frenetic art style."--Jonathan Foye "Insights Mag"<br><br>"Leave it to Peter Milligan to come up with something as wildly entertaining and terrifyingly topical as Happy Hour. Alongside artist Michael Montenat, Milligan launches this series with a high-concept dystopian hook that's definitely attention-grabbing, but it's what the team does next that makes it really worth paying attention to. ... This kind of concept represents an artistic tightrope, one that not all artists would be able to navigate, but Montenat clears the bar with room to spare. ... This feels like a world-class comics satire in the making."--Matthew Jackson "SYFY WIRE"<br>
