Public Domain is a thinly veiled retelling of Jack Kirby's family's legal battle to win back the rights to the characters Kirby created from Marvel infused with Chip Zdarsky's own experience as a comics writer. While it's pretty funny, it's extremely literal. I'm a Kirby partisan, but these fictional analogues are less interesting than the real people. I'd rather just read a biography of Kirby. The illustrations are very bland digital clip art.
