Description

Carved Jesus, Aflame
A Southern Magical Realism comic by Pearl Crews done entirely by Woodburning.

Follow the life of a trans woman, Lucille Green, and her journey through the mystical, bitter, wrought landscape of the South-East U.S. The roads looking all too much like the Myth of Blood is Inescapable.

Gravity Loop Presents a hundred pages of charred wood across three issues, elaborate pyrography carefully recreated on the page for your speculation. A short series for Mature Audiences that is not included in our Anthology.

“One of the most exciting new voices in comics”
– Remy Boydell (920London)

“Pearl Crews is pushing the medium of comics forward with her unique visual style and raw surreal storytelling”
– Max Graves (What Happens Next)

“The comfort from the mundane and the intimidation from heavy weighted themes and the grotesque blended perfectly, peppered with familiar Southernisms, and burned into one gorgeous, striking piece of art”
– Varg (Mammal Friend)
