WELCOME TO AN ALTERNATE REALITY AT COMIC UNKNOWN!
It's never about the destination but about the journey that brought you to it. In Alter-Life, we see Jake at what he assumed was the end of his road. Widowed and without with daughter due to a car accident, Jake merely travels through what is left of his existence until he stumbles onto something beyond his control. When he dies, he is just put back into the world as if nothing happened with minor difference around him. Things will never be the same for him but almost nothing has changed. Created by Caleb Thusat and art by Katrina Kuntsmann, Alter-Life Issue One is a beautiful science fiction that makes us ponder on whether there are alternate realities 99.99% similar to our current reality. It is definitely a fresh story that hasn't been seen in the comic world recently.
The art fits the story perfectly with its unique style for a comic book. It sets the mood of what is going through our protagonist's mind as he ventures through each life he lives through. If Jake continues his voyage between realities, can he find the reality he is looking for or is he stuck forever in what could be his own hell? Could he become something more than a mourning widower, maybe someone elses savior? Only time will tell with future issues on what can Jake is destined for. Successfully funded through Kickstarter back in March 2016, you can now purchase a copy of Alter-Life Issue One at Village Comics' site for $1.99 digitally and $4.99 for a physical copy.
