Travis is the creator of Vulgarian Invasions, an underground comic that gleefully wallows in the obscene. Casually dismissing his detractors as pious censors, Travis finds himself in dangerous territory after his comic targets a shady Chinatown businessman named Leonard Fong. Mr. Fong does not take kindly to the offensive caricature of him and orders his goons to punish Travis by severing his drawing hand.
Rattled to his core, Travis abandons his comic and retreats into a miserable, alcoholic existence. That is, until his hand returns from the grave. The hand urges Travis to resume Vulgarian Invasions but Travis refuses, fearing a deadly reprisal. The hand,
however, will not relent and embarks on a perverse, byanymeansnecessary
mission to rejuvenate Travis' once bold spirit.
