Description
Wren Booker was three when she was found alone and covered in blood on the streets of New York. Since that day, she's been haunted by the childhood she can't remember...until decades later when she finds a cryptic website streaming multiple CCT feeds from strange rooms in a ruined building. Something clicks, setting off hidden memories that lead her back to a place she's seen in lifelong nightmares. Hunting for answers, Wren breaks in and finds herself lost in the camera-filled dark mazes of a decayed social experiment known only as BLINK...which she quickly discovers is not abandoned at all. But what should be a foreign nightmare-scape feels all too familiar for Wren as she follows her obsession all the way down, piecing together the story of BLINK-as well as her own ties to it.
Eisner-nominated Christopher Sebela (Dirtbag Rapture), Hayden Sherman (Dark Spaces: Wildfire), and Nick Filardi (Rogue Planet) team up for a found-footage horror where uncovering your past will leave you trapped inside it.

Reviews / Votes
"Sherman's bold colors and eye for architecture make this dystopia feel uncomfortably real, while their imaginative page layouts-panels sometimes take the form of down arrows as the characters fall deeper into the tunnels-intensify the increasing sense of disorientation. As smart as it is scary, this sci-fi chiller will rock any reader whose nightmare is one in which "we all live in public." * <I>Publishers Weekly</I> *More details

Hayden is an award winning comic artist whose work includes WASTED SPACE, THUMBS, THE FEW, and CHICKEN DEVIL. They're a lover of science-fiction and fantasy who has had the joy of illustrating for companies such as Oni, Marvel, Image, Dark Horse, Dynamite, AfterShock, Vault, and BOOM! Studios. They currently reside in Boston, Massachusetts, where they share an apartment with their significant other and an increasingly dumb cat.
Nick Filardi grew up in New London, Connecticut listening to Small Town Hero and watching Batman: The Animated Series. After graduating from Savannah College of Art and Design in 2004, he colored for Zylonol Studios under Lee Loughridge in Savannah, GA while maintaining the pretense of working an "office" job. He is currently living in Gainesville, Florida with his three-legged dog, DeNiro. You can find his work in Powers, The Victories, and Blink.
Frank Cvetkovic (He/Him) is a comic book letterer who hates when people assume that all he does is put words in bubbles. There's a little more to the job than that. For instance, sometimes he puts them in boxes. He currently lives in Cleveland, OH where the rivers occasionally catch fire and the city sometimes shuts down due to deadly swarms of balloons.
