The Singularity

The official companion graphic novel to legendary composer Bear McCreary's original rock concept album and concert experience of the same name.

How much loss can one soul endure?

Blue Eyes can't stop being reborn. He tumbles from life to life, from one unthinkably strange universe to the next--the only constant being that, one way or another, everything 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 the very least, exact revenge for it.

THE SINGULARITY is inspired by, and a companion to, the original conceptual rock album of the same name by Emmy and BAFTA Award-winning and Grammy Award-nominated composer BEAR McCREARY (The Walking Dead, God of War). Created by Bear McCreary with writer Mat Groom (INFERNO GIRL RED), the book is produced by Black Market Narrative and published by Image Comics.

A cavalcade of comics' greatest artists convene under the guidance of creative director Kyle Higgins (RADIANT BLACK, MOON MAN), to tell an emotionally gripping, cosmic story about the lessons that loss can teach us, bursting with imaginative imagery as diverse and energetic as the album that sparked it.
