"In The Future, We Are Dead" by Eva Müller
In The Future, We Are Dead is a collection of nine short comics thematically linked in their exploration of mortality. Some stories focus on a young Müller coming to terms with her growing terror of death, others show a grown Müller still grappling with her fears.
