PREVIEW
THE STORY BEHIND LIVE FOREVER
LIVE FOREVER is very special to me because it helped me to cope with the loss of my brother who departed on the year 2018.
At the same time, I decided to create something meaningful to me and others. So LIVE FOREVER is a story that explores introspection and inspires reflection because it touches on real aspects of humanity like loss and emotional wounds, which can help comfort one and make people ask themselves questions about their own lives.
It also touches upon a fond appreciation of art, capturing the importance of storytelling by using high contrasts. At times, it will remind you of Frank Miller's Sin City but mixed with a manga style. So I dare to say that this comic will delight your eyes.
Note: If you are experiencing the loss of a loved one, I would recommend you two books. “It’s OK That You Are Not OK” by Megan Devine and “I wasn’t ready to say Goodbye” by Brook Noel, and Pamela Blair PhD (the books that Sarah is reading above). They taught me to cope with my loss and understand what I was feeling. So a bunch of these teachings I learned are reflected in this story as way to cope with my loss through my artistic expression.
