A lonely character in a submarine.
A task given by a sinister corporation.
And a sound, that will be the end of us all.

Details:

Sounds from the Deep was created in March – October 2022. It is a short story of confusion, despair, and facing oneself. With a Lovecraftian twist. Originally, I thought of sending it to a sci-fi comic antology, which collected max 8 pages long stories. Even though my story wasn’t finished in time, I still held on to the 8 pages limit.

I want to thank teacher Jesse Matilainen and the people in course Sarjakuvailmaisu 2 (Spring 2022), Anu Kotilainen and Jussi Alarauhio for constructive and supportive feedback.

I’ve painted (awesome) covers for this story, and when the stars align just right, I might order a couple of printed versions. Let me know, if you are interested.

The comic was drawn traditionally with ink, nib & brush on Bristol board, and edited with Krita.
