Comics are for everyone. This is why The Singularity by Bear McCreary and Mat Groom is a great addition to the medium as it crosses over between the world of music and the world of visual storytelling.
How much loss can one soul endure? Blue Eyes can’t stop being reborn. He tumbles from life to life, from one unthinkably strange universe to the next-the only constant that, one way or another, everything that he learns to love is lost. But when Blue Eyes finally catches up to a mysterious figure he’s seen recurring throughout his lives, he realizes he might just have a chance to escape his cursed immortality-or, at very least, exact revenge for it.
