What a great comic, though I felt the ending wasn’t as good as the beautiful build up.
Art was good too. The story reminded me a bit of Cloud Atlas by David Mitchell. The birthmarks in the story I think represent the same souls in different life cycles. I could be wrong though.
Looking forward to discovering more silent comics.
