Is Ted OK? mashes up the paranoid existentialism of Severance with the cosmic sci-fi of Akira while exploring what happens when the act of help goes horribly wrong.

This is a story about Ted and Sarah.

Ted, isolated and paranoid, works for a mega corporation owned by the world's only trillionaire. He suffers from night terrors, obsessively draws the same mysterious figures again and again, all while listening to one track of music on repeat--oh, and the only "person" he ever talks to is a stray cat. His humanity is hanging by a thread. Sarah is a new arrival to the city, fighting her own demons, and her job is to remotely spy on Ted to ensure he doesn't hurt anyone...or himself. When Ted's mental state begins to crack, Sarah compassionately intervenes to help, and things go catastrophically wrong. Is Ted OK? mashes up the paranoid existentialism of Severance with the cosmic sci-fi of Akira while exploring what happens when the act of help goes horribly wrong.

From creator Dave Chisholm (Spectrum, Miles Davis & The Search for the Sound), Is Ted OK? is a spectacularly unpredictable yarn--each successive issue shatters the scope of the previous, all without losing its core: a search for human connection in an oppressive, paranoid world.
