Spongeman

Rome is a divided city: The South side is ruled by the ruthless Don

Berlusconi, while the callous Don Spugna dominates the North.

The  mob bosses have one thing in common, they lack a successor to inherit their mafia dynasties...until...

Vesa Toukomaa's Spongeman is absorbing influence

from the tradition of the European graphic novel, soaping up with the cult of American comic book superheroes,

then coming clean in the sewers of the surreal Roman underworld.

And in that world only the dense can survive while the porous will

perish.
