Don Giovanni – Portland Opera Comics
Masetto is rarely pleased with Giovanni’s party tactics.
Frustrated by his master’s shenanigans, Leporello threatens to leave Giovanni’s service.
Meanwhile, Giovanni completely fails to impersonate Leporello.
At the top of Act 2, Leporello and Giovanni switch clothes so that Giovanni can go seduce some more babes. The disguise is somewhat lacking.
Leporello learns that being Don Giovanni has its upsides.
Don Ottavio, fiance to the ravishing Donna Anna, is shocked when his beloved expresses her attraction to Don Giovanni.
At Giovanni’s party, he tries a new tactic.
Don Ottavio makes a last ditch effort to grab the attentions of his beloved.
Donna Anna, however, is too busy belting it like a rockstar to notice her fiancé’s change of attire. (Seriously. The women in this show fucking KILLED IT.)
Meanwhile, the grisly evidence of Giovanni’s murderous tendencies (displayed to their fullest at the very top of the show), continues to slide down the set.
In the process of lamenting her father’s murder at the hands of Don Giovanni, she makes an alarming discovery.
The Commendatore sings accusingly at Don Giovanni from beyond the grave! (Or does he?)
Leporello fears the Commendatore’s fiery gaze, but Giovanni knows the truth.
The Commendatore rises from the grave to deliver a striking revelation! (Also Giovanni gets whisked away to eternal damnation or something I wasn’t really paying attention to anything but the Merkin Mystery at this point.)
