DALE: A new employee in the design department at DC Comics.
ANGELA: Director of Trade Paperback design at DC Comics and Dale's supervisor.
Setting
Angela's paper-strewn office. Pinups and design ideas line the walls.
Scene One
ANGELA, seated at her desk, looks up as an obviously-nervous Dale enters her office.
ANGELA:
Well?
DALE:
Alex Ross wants a fatted calf this time.
ANGELA:
Instead of the sack of large non-sequential bills or...?
DALE:
In addition to.
ANGELA:
Son of a bitch.
DALE:
He...he also said Joe Quesada bought him a boat. For the Captain America redesign.
ANGELA:
Wait. A what?
DALE:
A boat.
ANGELA:
What kind? Are we talking about a schooner or a paddleboat or...? (TRAILS OFF)
DALE:
He said he was planning on taking it to the Caribbean this spring and that the helipad would make it easier for him to get the girls in Jana costumes--
Fine, I've got an idea. Get the DC Direct guys on the phone. We're going to need that Bottle City of Kandor prop they made a couple of years ago. We should have a couple hundred in the Jersey warehouse.
DALE:
Okay. What else?
ANGELA:
Do you know Photoshop? Lens flares and all that?
DALE:
That's one of the reasons you hired me.
ANGELA:
Right, right, right. Do you see where I'm going here?
In addition to those, you can be my fake internet friend on MySpace and follow me on Twitter and look at my photographs on Flickr before buying me a present from my Amazon wishlist. Heck, you can even shop at my Amazon shop if you want to help make sure I have booze money.
