“Flame Broiled: Diary of a Burger-Flipper” by Chrissy Spallone

Here’s my contribution to Minicomics Day: “FLAME BROILED: DIARY OF A BURGER-FLIPPER,” a 10-pager concerning the minutiae of fast food employment. In this premiere issue, Betty gets her first job at Burger Shanty and learns how to toast buns, prep shrimp salad and more! Meet the diverse Burger Shanty crew, representing an underground culture rarely depicted in the media.

I’m hoping to make this a series, developing the characters more and telling more fun stories with each issue.
