Commune. 88 pages. Black and White. Tall format.

A science fiction story about growing up as a member of the human race; it takes place on a starship, shortly after a disaster has torn apart the families aboard. A small party of children must discover what their world means to them, now that the adults have gone missing ...

The conclusion surprised me, even as I was drawing the 1000th panel.

A poetic introduction written by Vincent Stall starts the book.

 

$14.95*  

*I chose the added expense of printing on 100% recycled paper using vegetable based inks. The heavy pallet was shipped to me using a carbon-neutral program. This makes it the first "zero impact" comic book ever printed (see eco-journalism coverage below). In celebration, I will ship the book for free if you are in the United States.

Do you like it? It is printed on a beautiful,
blue recycled paper with star speckles.


The book and the poster cost less when
bought together.
