Eye of the Majestic Creature is a collection of semiautobiographical and fantasybased comics that combine dry humor, psychedelia, and emotion to show the viewpoint of one person? world internally and externally. The story follows a young girl, Larrybear, and her talking acoustic guitar Marshmallow on their adventures through the countryside, Chicago, San Francisco and New York. While Larrybear struggles to connect with strangers, her friends, and her family with varying degrees of success, her growing population of anthropomorphic friends go on adventures of their own.Larrybear is in a constant struggle between the desire to connect with those around her and to be left to her own devices. You get a glimpse of her past life when she visits her home town of Chicago, trying to relate to old friends who have not matured since high school, as well as her family (which includes her hippopotamus father and his harem of exwives, two brothers, and Salsadancing mom). In the present, she moves to New York to find work for a time, resulting in many hilarious and drunken adventures with her new coworkers at a cell phone decorating shop, and her old friend Boris, who shares with her his P.G. Wodehouse books, as well as his ?ncredible Hulk?weed. Drawn in shades of gray using the neardeceased practice of stippling, Stein? imagery draws you into Stein? world for a complete and engrossing experience.
