They interwind and finally merge together. So, there're two stories: Mia and her chosen family on the ship and Mia and Grace. But the story is not linear - it also takes us 5 years back to Mia experiencing her first love. Mia begins her adult life and gets a job in reconstruction with a small team which consist of two married women, a niece of one of them, and a non-binary person. Every part is unique, but they're all connected. About how I should think of all the circuits and wires like they're roads. “Walden echoes classic comics genres while rendering them in her own unique visual language… she’s an evolutionary leap forward in cartooning, fearless, assured and, most astonishingly, just getting started.Read here Preferably at 2am while curled up under blanket and contemplating existence. She crafts such simple stories and images, but they hold universes of emotion and meaning.” “Gorgeous… Walden is far and away one of the best cartoonists working today.
That’s the case with Tillie Walden’s fantastic On A Sunbeam.” - Andrew Liptak, The Verge “Every now and again, there’s a comic that will stop you dead in your tracks and consume your time until you take in every last page and dialogue bubble. It is a collaboration that has garnered many accolades, including two Ignatz Awards and two Eisner nominations. Since then they have released two editions of Walden’s I Love This Part and her third book, A City Inside. This will be the fourth Tillie Walden book from Avery Hill, a partnership that began when Tillie was 18, with the publication of her debut graphic novel The End of Summer in 2015.
Part love story, part epic space adventure, and dealing with Tillie’s now signature themes of sexuality & gender, the individual in landscape, first love and awesome cats On A Sunbeam is a masterpiece of modern comics and arguably Tillie’s greatest artistic statement so far.
Tillie Walden's queer space-opera tells the story of Mia, from her life as a rebellious schoolgirl, to her time as part of the crew on the ship Aktis, out in the deepest reaches of space, rebuilding beautiful and broken down structures. Or Get The Digital Edition From Our Gumroad Store
