A series of hilariously-illustrated vignettes that follow the rise and fall of a number of stereotypes such as: the Athlete, the Girlfriend, the Soldier, the Poet, the Painter and so forth. Each page dominated by a lively, almost stylized drawing with only a few lines of text explaining a particular phase of the stereotype's life: Emergence, Success, Triumph, Temptation and Downfall.With numerous recognisable caricatures of the famous and near famous.
