Cándido's Apocalypse is a surreal story tracing a living nightmare experienced by teenager Bobby Heredia, who obsessed and disgusted with the concept of overacting, or vapidity and constructed performance he sees in others, begins to see everyone around him fist stark narked, and then eventually as disgusting skeletons. He experiences this nightmare through the eyes of his alter ego, Cándido. Eventually, Bobby is able to split from Cándido, but the alter ego still follows him and walks around the city.
