“Wasteland Transaction”

This sketch is called Wasteland Transaction, although I’ve no idea what the transaction actually involves. Why is the woman who’s rocked up in the crazy off-road vehicle handing an ornate box up to the guy in the post-apocalyptic lookout post? Or maybe he’s the one handing it down to her.

More to the point, what does the box contain? I don’t know, but I have narrowed it down to the following shortlist:

• The dusty remains of two very small stone tablets
• A map showing the way to Shangri-La
• A list of nomadic warlords slated for assassination
• The driver’s lunch

Whatever’s in the box, one thing’s for sure. I wouldn’t have drawn this had I not recently watched Mad Max: Fury Road on Blu-ray.
