Question for a comic book

I'm asking about this old comic book issue from a series I believe called Shade the changing man.

Anyways there is a screen cap of the cover of an certain issue that featured a man kissing a very cartoonishly inflated woman where she is floating and she is very round.

I'm asking if there is anyone who has read the issue and if there is any additional inflation within the comic. Please let me know. thanks

Apparently, it's issue #53 - Romeo Alone (1994). There are several sites that list it, but I can't find a synopsis of the stories.

i've got the comic, not with me, but I bought it ages ago. The inflation on the inside, is...not good. If i remember, there's one panel of a girl saying I don't feel good, and her belly sticking out a bit, then, "Boom!" she explodes, and is just a head on some kinda mist for the other pages. Very very strange...but the cover is amazeing :-D when I get back home I'll try to remember to upload some scans.

No, I would not want to live in a world without dragons, as I would not want to live in a world without magic, for that is a world without mystery, and that is a world without faith.

Dragon_6860 is on the button with his comments.

The cover is awesome (it's online somewhere) but what's inside is pretty poor. I remembered seeking it out in a shop and was very disappointed when I finally read it.

The cover is indeed awesome!

HEhe, no doubt, it's one of the best pieces of inflation art I've ever seen, just too bad that the inside wasn't as good.

Indeed!

But would like to see those scans if you can find the comic dragon_6860

I scanned the cover myself when it came out, and I have the comic, but not in a place where I can get it. The inflation in the issue was exactly has others have described it. The girl is Shade's ex-girlfriend and she's trying to worm her way back into his life. It's a one-off issue and she does not appear inflated in any others.

SO she inflated on the cover is a metaphor for him not wanting her back or something?

Heh, from what I've seen it was a rather...odd comic, trying to get any deeper meaning would be a exercise in futility.

No, I would not want to live in a world without dragons, as I would not want to live in a world without magic, for that is a world without mystery, and that is a world without faith.
