"With enough time, you can fix anything." The Infinitum are a future society of people and aliens displaced to our past. Special Investigator Nine works in The Paradox Bureau, an agency that polices the temporal diaspora and prevents crimes before they happen. Nine is sent on assignment to the 1940s (to the very place and time he was originally recruited) and must avoid altering his own past while investigating a seemingly unpreventable murder. Nine uncoils a temporal conspiracy at the heart of a militant separatist movement. Why would an organization dedicated to preventing murder before it happens cover up a series of grisly killings? Through the flash of rayguns and the half-light and the fog of a future-tainted 1940s, Nine pursues a killer while he avoids fouling the investigations of his own multiple selves.

Praise for GMB Chomichuk
“GMB Chomichuk’s collage of paradoxes transcends the bottleneck of time-travel comics with fearless originality . . . It is [Chomichuk’s] unique perspective that allows Infinitum to rise above much of the rest of its competition. By embracing paradox and welding it to the inner workings of his story, Chomichuk successfully resets the bar for smart, engaging time-travel stories.”
―Jason Wilkins, Broken Frontier
“In what has turned out to be his tightest, most accomplished work to date, [with Midnight City: Body Orchard] Winnipeg artist GMB Chomichuk explores the horrifying framework propping up the fearless heroes of Maxima City with his signature craft and style.”
―Broken Frontier
