Eisner and GLAAD award nominated creators Brandt& Stein's debut graphic novel is White Lotus meets Glass Onion. Welcome to Paradise, prepare for trouble. On a remote island, far from the distractions of the internet and modern life, we gather here today to celebrate the union of Domino McElligott and Battista Lovely... unless Radcliffe Raleigh can stop it!A professional 'Worst Man', Rad is hired by the Mother of the Bride, the merciless tech mogul Valentina McElligott. With the price of failure being his life and less than 32 hours till "I do", Rad's ready to pull out every trick in his arsenal to stop the wedding and save his skin - until he meets Best Man and beef cake, Chris Kafka. Determined to keep the Best Man close for.... uh... purely professional reasons, Rad quickly realizes he may be on the wrong side of the aisle and the only 'mistake' needing to be rectified is of his own making. But with sick guests, a ruined dress, and the smell of a conspiracy wafting from the vol-au-vents, is it too late for Radcliffe to get the ceremony back on track? An indulgent, razor-sharp romcom, Worst Man is all the best things about reading one more chapter of your favorite fanfiction, wrapped up in 228 pages of an entirely original story. No page or panel is wasted, with expressive artwork from a never-better creative duo.
