Fearful Symmetry
Edith Dyer is dead. Due to sickness, her children are told - but Ephraim, the family's youngest son, isn't so easily convinced. Why else would she have been kept locked away, right up until her death? Why else won't their father talk to them about the mysterious circumstances? And why else does he dream of his mother, beckoning him into the forest behind their family manor? His younger sister Cecilia is inclined to agree. But his elder brother, Ulysses, isn't quite so quick to indulge superstition, and the wedge it drives between the brothers might alter their lives irreparably.
Fearful Symmetry is an ongoing project of many years that will be broken into two parts. It's about family, grief, and betrayal, as well as the power (and poison) of inheritance. Below you'll find an excerpt from the comic, a product of my first semester in the Columbus College of Art & Design's graduate program, in addition to some supplementary work I've made for the project.
