The List
A typical suburban family is visited by an Arch Angel, who presents them with their birthright, The List, in exchange for the life of the Mother. The Mother agrees to be sacrificed, knowing the family will be held in high esteem by God for doing so. With the Mother dead, the Angel bequeaths The List to the Father, who embarks on his quest. The story opens with his return, seeking his promised reward: Enlightenment – a knowledge he will gain only by suicide. Before this, however, he passes The List down to his Son, who, like his Father, has the Commandments tattooed upon his torso before embarking on his own “holy” quest…
Don’t come looking for moralistic, pot of gold at the end of the rainbow, happily ever after drivel here. This is no superhero comic.
The List, a tale of primal rage, insanity, and violence, will dare you to traverse some of the darkest mental territory ever put to print in a Graphic Novel. The List does not aim to please, does not seek forgiveness and will not apologise. It just is.
In that place where your demons dwell; in that secret, concealed part of your mind where your insanity is kept at bay by all your conditioning; in those times when rage, injustice, and hopelessness overwhelm you; when all around you is darkness…The List understands.
