Following the immense success of the first Theatrics comic, Volume 2 follows the story of famed 1920s Broadway actor Rudy Burns, who received the beatdown of a lifetime on one fateful night that changed his path forever. The once incredibly handsome actor now has the face of a homunculus that got trampled by a horse. Put in simpler terms, his face got completely fucked up. After he lost his looks, his job, his money, and his girl, any sensible person would have tried to piece the shreds of their life back together again and attempt to live a normal life but Rudy was far too theatrical for that.
