As the Windsor porcelain factory begins to fail, soon to be newlyweds Rob and Louise find themselves made redundant (laid off). As Louise takes advantage of the situation to go to school and get a better job, Rob stagnates, barely mustering the energy to play football with his friends. How does one move on?
Breakfast After Noon is the kind of comic we should have more of — a mature presentation of realistic people facing everyday conflicts, learning and growing from their experiences, all expressed beautifully through combined art and text. It’s a must-read.
Rob Grafton and Louise Bright are in love and engaged to be married. When they unexpectedly find themselves unemployed, marriage plans are derailed and they are forced to rethink the direction of their lives. While Louise turns to school, Rob maintains a staunch desire to regain his old job, but when the company is itself shut down and hope is lost, Rob's depression not only keeps him from finding another job, but ends up repelling Louise, as well. Set in contemporary England, BREAKFAST AFTER NOON is a unique comic-book treat, choosing to focus on the twists and turns of real life rather than convoluted plots or the smoke-and-mirrors of the fantastic.

I did not like the style, the characters, the contrived situations, or the ridiculous ending. I don't even think it's worth my time to elaborate on any of that. I'm surprised that Watson got an Eisner award nomination for this. ( )
