Deaf child Nestor Gudfred inexplicably creates utter silence around him, which compels the people near him into each others pasts and memories. As his religious rural community looks to him as a prophet, the story follows Nestor and a diverse cast of richly imagined characters as he comes of age, falls in love, and begins a search for his father. Winner of the coveted Xeric Grant, the debut issue was originally self-published by internationally exhibited painter Joshua Hagler before landing at AAM Markosia.
