Attack of the Puppet People Page #3

IT DOESN'T

INTEREST ME.

WHY NOT? BECAUSE

MY MARIONETTES ARE OLD

AND NEED ATTENTION?

I DON'T MIND

REPAIRING THEM,

IT ISN'T THAT.

WHAT IS IT, THEN?

I'M CONTENT IN

MY DOLL FACTORY.

ISN'T IT TIME

WE ATE?

DO YOU KNOW WHAT'S WRONG

WITH YOU, MY FRIEND?

WHY MUST SOMEONE

WHO'S CONTENT WITH

THINGS THE WAY THEY ARE

ALWAYS HAVE SOMETHING

WRONG WITH HIM?

CONTENTMENT:

IS UNNATURAL.

EMMA'S LEAVING MUST'VE

DONE YOU A GREAT DEAL

OF HARM, MY BOY.

YOU THINK SO?

YOU'VE RUN AWAY

FROM LIFE. YOU'VE

SURROUNDED YOURSELF

WITH ALL SHAPES OF

PEOPLE:
THEIR FACES,

THEIR LEGS, THEIR ARMS...

EVEN LITTLE MANNEQUINS

OF THEM. BUT NOT

THEIR SPIRIT.

YOU'RE AFRAID OF THAT.

WELL, I'VE FOUND

PEACE, ANYHOW.

WILL IT LAST?

I HAVE NO FEAR IT WON'T.

I LOVE MY DOLLS AND

I'M QUITE SURE.

THEY'LL NEVER

LEAVE ME.

LET'S FORGET ABOUT

THE PAST, EMIL, AND

HAVE A GOOD TIME, HUH?

LIVING IN THE:

PRESENT IS THE ONLY

IMPORTANT THING.

AFTER DINNER,

WE'LL GO BACK

TO MY SHOP, HUH?

EXCELLENT IDEA.

HOW ABOUT THAT?

HAPPY?

UH-HUH.

DID YOU PICK:

THIS SHOW FOR ANY

PARTICULAR REASON?

I GET TIRED OF:

THE SAME THINGS ALL

THE TIME. DON'T YOU?

YES, I DO.

SUCH AS WHAT?

DOLLS.

WHY DON'T YOU ASK ME WHAT

IT FEELS LIKE TO BE A FREAK?

PLEASE, SIR, I...

THIS IS HOW IT:

FEELS TO BE SO BIG YOU

CAN STICK YOUR FIST

THROUGH A CIRCUS TOP!

[Colossal Man]

LIKE A CLOWN!

MR. FRANZ SAID YOU

WERE GOING BACK TO

ST. LOUIS TOMORROW.

MAYBE.

[Colossal Man] I CAN GROW

TO BE 100 FEET TALL!

AND I DON'T NEED

A CHANGE OF WARDROBE.

HOW WOULD YOU LIKE

TO COME WITH ME?

WHAT WOULD I DO:

IN ST. LOUIS?

LIVE IN A PRETTY

LITTLE HOUSE.

BECOME MRS.

BOB WESTLEY.

[Colossal Man] "MAN LIVES

THROUGH PLUTONIUM BLAST."

THAT'S A GREAT JOKE,

ISN'T IT, SERGEANT?

WHY DO YOU THINK

I'VE BEEN HANGING AROUND

ALL THESE WEEKS?

WHAT DO YOU SAY?

I DON'T KNOWWHAT TO SAY.

THEN DON'T SAY ANYTHING.

[Colossal Man] WANT TO GO

BACK AND TELL YOUR FRIENDS

ABOUT THE MONSTER?

THE CIRCUS FREAK?

THAT'S RIGHT, SERGEANT.

I'M A CIRCUS FREAK.

HAVE A TENT, WILL TRAVEL.

WHY DON'T YOU

MAKE A SIGN SAYING:

"SEE THE AMAZING COLOSSAL MAN"?

SAY, I GO A TERRIFIC IDEA.

WHY DON'T WE FLY TO

LAS VEGAS TOMORROW

AND GET MARRIED?

I COULDN'T LEAVE

WITHOUT TELLING:

MR. FRANZ I'M GOING.

WELL, LET ME TELL

HIM. I'LL SEE HIM FIRST

THING IN THE MORNING.

YOU GET PACKED AND

BE READY. I'LL PICK

YOU UP AT 10:
00.

HOW'S THAT?

WONDERFUL.

[Colossal Man] I'M NOT

GROWING, YOU'RE SHRINKING!

[Phone rings]

[Sally]HELLO?

[Franz]MISS REYNOLDS.

IS ANYTHING THE MATTER?

WHEN YOU DIDN'T COME

TO THE OFFICE THIS MORNING,

I BEGAN TO WORRY.

HASN'T MR. WESTLEY

BEEN TO SEE YOU?

YES, HE WAS HERE

EARLIER, BUT HE'S LEFT.
