Demure Deflowering. Candice is generally hailed as heiress apparent to Grace Kelly, but the princess role does not quite fit. Says she: "Basically I'm the klutz who makes a terrific entrance to the party and then trips and falls and walks around with food in her hair. That ice-maiden stuff is a big defense-it's protection. It keeps a lot of Shriners and creeps away." She greets friends with a breezy "How's your ass anyway?"

The new freak comics work with a new kind of causality. A beautiful girl is transformed into a princess phone through the psychic projections of rejected lovers. Retributive justice is a persistent theme, but it is never confronted and articulated.
