Feast your eyes upon this Bio-Fey-Steampunk story with inherent elements of the Gothic Genre drawn in a Theater Noir style about life, death, dreams, reality, and why you don't associate with Undead Cabbages.
This comic contains violence, gore, nudity, and controversial topics such as drugs, sex, religion, and the aerodynamics of a human kidney. Viewer discretion is strongly advised.

I'd been wondering why would a city necromancer be involved with someone who is going to destroy all that the necromancers have worked for (the end of entropy). In this page I think I see it on their expressions. The old man is Francis's father.
Good name for our necomatic enigma btw.
That's a good dream to live

Damn I really didn't want him to die he was pretty awesome.
I doubt it,

I doubt death is the final act for this guy, his planning and plotting the last couple of pages doesn't add up to a simple "suicide by cop".
His expression in the last panel does fit the mood perfectly though, nicely done.
@Sam Bedge, nice call on their relation, it makes good sense. Entropy however can not end, the only situation with zero entropy would be a perfect void. I believe what the necromancer are trying to achieve is order, a situation where the present entropy doesn't increase or decrease, a perfectly predictable en sustainable system.
Wow...

great moodcatching, very well done.
And seeing the way they talk, they could very wellb e father and son.
And since I have not received an answeer yet, let me repost my question from a few pages ago: any chance of getting a big version of the "Living/Undead" Destiny Face (or even better full body version) heading the comic into the gallery?
I would love to use it as a background.

Hey Arkh,
Sorry I didn't get to you earlier dude. To answer your question, I'm afraid I don't have a bigger version. BUT, you make a valid point that something like that would make an awesome background, and I guess it's about time I made one for fans.
I'm thinking maybe something that shows the full body and the two worlds (real and Dalton). Let me see if I can quickly make that. I'm close to finishing the Dalton City Map. After that, if people would dig it, I'll make that next.
Thanks

that would be great.
Both sides of her (bodily and wordlwise) in full body? Perfect!
But don`t pressure yourself.
Looking great and having a high resolution are more important (to me at least) than having it earliest.
I`ve lived without the seemingly best Comic Background so long, what are a few more days/weeks? ^^
