This is a boundary-pushing collection of short comics stories. Flat, digital candy colours are juxtaposed against lush, fully painted pages; representational naturalism veers into wildly surreal abstraction; pixelated panels are interrupted by swaths of bold chiaroscuro.

Departments of inhumane resources dehumanise the people it is purported to protect; information is determinedly mined like the gold of the 21st century that it is; induced suicidal thoughts are a tool to manage overpopulation. Like Black Mirror, Galvan''s near future is less paranoid dystopia than it is a logical extension of things to come, where the malice of large corporations manifests in small, everyday ways.
