A newly dead girl awakens among a group of charming spirits, seeking the truth of her death and her place between worlds. Emerging from the traditions of comics yet aspiring to the stature of prose fiction, the graphic novel embraces genres from memoir and history to fantasy and satire. Its fusion of word and image situates it as both visual literature and cultural document, bridging storytelling and illustration with distinctive power. Full length narratives span adventure, fantasy, memoir, and history, where art drives the drama and dialogue carries the voice. Together they create a reading experience as visual as it is literary. Today, the graphic novel stands as one of the most exciting ways to explore storytelling in print. Size: 16.5 x 26 cms. Category: Comics & Graphic Novels; ISBN: 1785861328. ISBN/EAN: 9781785861321.

About this title

Synopsis

THE BEAUTIFUL AND SUSPENSFUL REVIVAL OF A GOTHIC LOLITA, IN THE VEIN OF TIM BURTON.

One night, Alisik wakes up in a cemetery. Frightened, she tries to flee only to discover that nobody can see her, touch her, or help her. This is because Alisik is dead. Worse, she is trapped between worlds, between hell and paradise, awaiting the judgment of Mr. Mortis, which is slow to come.
 
Meanwhile, the cemetery faces destruction and Alisik and her new friends in the afterlife are bound to protect it. Luckily, Alisik has the help of Ruben, a young blind man, and the only person able to hear her. With Ruben as a light to guide her, Alisik has a chance to save the cemetery and find her way through the dark night.
