And the Grim Reaper can get the boot.
As soon as the future discoverer of eternal life is born, the Grim Reaper becomes redundant for the divine realm and is sent down to Earth. In present-day Bombay, she is reborn as twenty-year-old Laila Starr and discovers how fragile, fleeting, and precious life is. When she finds a way to track down this savior, will she seize her chance and prevent humanity from achieving immortality, or will dying become a thing of the past?
A story narrated, for example, by the god of life, a dying cigarette, or an old building, bursting with colors and ideas, and refreshingly engaging with the tradition of magical realism and Hindu mythology.
Four nominations for the Will Eisner Award
Featured in the best comics of the year selections by Mary Sue, Polygon, Variety, Entertainment Weekly, Multiversity Comics, American Library Association, and the Prix BD Fnac France Inter selection.
