Great comic! I haven’t read the short story this is based off of, but you did a wonderful job telling the story.
Thank you! <3
I want to be friends with some Betelgeuse!
What a great piece. I'm sad. It affected me. Thank you.
You're welcome! And thank you for reading.
Lovely!
Really enjoyed this adaptation. Compared to the original story, I would say this worked exceptionally well. Will look at more of your work and look forward to what else may come!
Thanks! Really glad you enjoyed it!
That cover art looks sick!
Thanks!
Can't go wrong with Philip K. Dick!
