Discover a Profoundly Moving Graphic Novel About the Limits of Love and Heartbreak in November 2021
[/vc_column_text][us_separator][vc_column_text]BOOM! Studios today revealed a first look at THE SHORT WHILE, a new original graphic novel from acclaimed comics creator and Lambda Literary Award nominee, Jeremy Sorese (Curveball), that presents the tragic but redemptive love story of two men who meet, quickly fall in love, and then find themselves falling apart when an unexpected event changes both their lives forever, available in November 2021.
In the distant future, amidst a society rebuilding after a long and oppressive regime, two men accidentally swap their jackets at a party and are thrust into a most opportune meeting. In each other they find what they’ve been missing all along – love. Companionship. Honesty. And the joy of being able to trust your heart to someone else.
But no love is perfect, and they also find everything they ever feared – loss of self. Loss of freedom. And the tragedy of losing your heart to someone who can’t keep it safe.[/vc_column_text][us_separator][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][us_image_slider ids=”33101,33102,33103,33104,33105,33106,33107,33108,33109,33110,33111″ nav=”thumbs” fullscreen=”1″ img_fit=”contain”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][us_separator][vc_column_text]THE SHORT WHILE is the latest release from BOOM!
