Panel 1
An overview of a golden age movie studio backlot. The 1920s. We can see the open outdoor backlot stage of Arabian Nights.
TEXT BOX:
WHEN: The Golden Age of Cinema.
WHERE: The backlot of CARTER FILM STUDIOS.
VOICE OVER: What do you mean I’ve been recast?
Panel 2
We meet YOUNG DEBORAH, who is average of looks and features. She is arguing with a STAGE MANAGER who holds a list and clipboard and won’t let her into the ARABIAN PALACE set. Her clothes are tight on stick-thin body.
DEBORAH: I had a...private casting meeting with Mr. Bill Carter, the producer, who arranged for me to play Scheherazade for his Arabian Nights film.
STAGE MANAGER: Well, ma’am, that could explain it, because Bill Carter isn’t producing anymore, the film’s been handed off to his brother, George.
DEBORAH: WHAT? Why would he do that?
VOICE OFF PANEL: Because, dear Deborah, I had my own private session with Billy and Georgie…
Panel 3
We meet PHERA FELLONI, a striking and beautiful movie star who puts all of Deborah’s looks to shame. She carries a lit cigarette on a long filter.
DEBORAH: Phera!
PHERA: And I showed them some arrangements they much preferred over what you offered.
