An epic medieval "bosch style" comic novel
"Where one lie falls, another will sprout, and none shall escape the burden of choice while the monster seeks peace in the lands of death."
Sander's Second Life - vol.3 out in spring 2027
"In his biography, the artist, illustrator, and designer Stepan Razorёnov lists his birthdate (09/21/2002) as well as his death date (09/21/2093). He calls himself a calm, responsible, unsociable and strangely principled Tolkienist, and tells that, since the summer of 2021, he's been writing a story about the afterlife which has grown into three volumes. What he should, from now on, add to his biography is the word "Writer" as Sander's Second Life (his first comic book, drawn "one page a day" for nine months) is indeed a wonderfully drawn book, but first and foremost a work that makes use of a majestic and incredibly self-aware writing for a debut work." Furthermore, among the reasons: "Razorёnov does not simply tell the story of Sander's desire to build a town for all the creatures who ended up in hell, but does such a great world-building job to make living and believable every side character, every environment, every bit player. By addressing the corrosion that power brings along, the importance of the concept of community and individual responsibilities, Razorёnov bring the first chapter of a philosophical dark fantasy saga to life, whose hearth reside in its morally ambiguous main character, but whose souls lies in the questions concerning the ideas of death and rebirth, personal and collective memory, it asks the readers".
