The Adventures of Leonard:
The Mysteries of Hydra
This is an imaginary comic book – sorry, graphic novel: What if there were a graphic novel in the style of the Tintin adventures, but set on Hydra with Leonard as the main character? The young poet discovers that on the Water Island not everything is as it seems. He has to deal with, among other things, a secret society, a sea monster, and the disappearance of the entire dog population.
Sadly, I'm not talented enough in drawing to realise such a project. But here are (thanks to the help of some AIs) a few glimpses of what such a graphic novel might look like.
(The fourth image is the first version of the second panel. The dialogue here refers to another comic universe. But probably not a lot of Cohen listeners are also readers of Marvel comics. So I changed the dialogue lines a bit.)
