The audience actually wants to work for their meal. They just don’t want to know that they’re doing that. That’s your job as a storyteller is to hide the fact that you’re making them work for their meal. We’re born problem solvers. We’re compelled to deduce and to deduct because that’s what we do in real life. It’s this well-organized absence of information that draws us in.

Welcome to the Only Living Boy! (via Issue 1 Page 20)

12-year-old Joel orders an incredible monster through a comic book. It finally shows up…20 years later. It Came in the Mail, a movie on the Amazon Studios development slate, was illustrated by comic book artist Steve Ellis (Only Living Boy), and the script was adapted into trailerboard form by comics writer David Gallaher.

Check out the trailerboard and take our survey to tell us what you think.
