Synopsis

This deadpan zombie graphic novel satirizes the modern hunger for authenticity in an age of curated fakeness. It follows Q, a successful but formulaic zombie novelist, whose career falters after his wife's death. A bizarre encounter leads him to embrace a radical form of 'method writing' by living like a zombie, which brings him success but also a terrifying transformation. His mantra to 'be real' spreads virally with horrifying consequences.
