Summary
Excitement is building for this year’s Twammies and Clementine Darling is hotly tipped to win Best Female Singer and Political Spokesperson!
The government is embarrassed about the leak of a confidential email exchange, but have you heard about Clementine’s new beau Devon Ayre? Yes, human cloning appears to have been legalised, but wasn’t Devon once together with Clementine’s arch rival Coral Jerome? And does it really matter what dubious corporate connections helped get this bill into place while Clementine and Coral are locking horns in a violent feud?
Livestock is a razor-sharp satire on our relationship with the media from critically acclaimed graphic novelist Hannah Berry. In the fight for the public’s attention, why let public interest get in the way?

Reviews
A satire set in a not-very-distant future (think tomorrow, or possibly the day after) … In this tale, the gruesome relationship between celebrity and politics has moved way beyond The One Show sofa… Knowing and savage, Livestock is that rare thing: a comic book that has only grown more essential in the gap between its inception and its publication.
