What I like about the graphic is that the hippo is blue/lavender; what I find intriguing is that its eyes/pupils are unequal, like after a stroke or brain injury. The printing is that of a 7 year-old, which is rather scary considering the message. It's the contrast/dissonance between the illustrative depiction and content that sends a zinger to me. But I like it.
This has potential to be the subject of the next great children's book. I've recently catching up on my children book reading, so I would know. The potential sequels are also endless. For instance, "Larry the Cocksucking Lion" would be cool.
