Pearson (The Infernals ), and more, with creative director Kyle Higgins (Radiant Black, Moon Man, Deep Cuts ), for the upcoming graphic novel, The Singularity . This standalone story will hit shelves in May, be produced by Black Market Narrative, published by Image Comics, and tie-in with McCreary’s forthcoming concept album—of the same name—which was just announced this morning.
How much loss can one soul endure? In The Singularity graphic novel, Blue Eyes can’t stop being reborn. He tumbles from life to life, from one unthinkably strange universe to the next—the only constant is that, one way or another, everything that he learns to love is lost. But when Blue Eyes finally catches up to a mysterious figure he’s seen recurring throughout his lives, he realizes he might just have a chance to escape his cursed immortality—or, at very least, exact revenge for it.
The accompanying album’s story includes three spoken-word monologues lifted directly from the pages of the graphic novel and performed on the album by Lee Pace (Foundation, The Hobbit trilogy), Danai Gurira (Black Panther, The Walking Dead ), and Ryan Hurst (Sons of Anarchy, God of War Ragnarök ).
