Beverly #[nn]

Nick Ornaso's Beverly announces itself with a quietly arresting cover: a cross-section of suburban interiors reveals multiple rooms and figures going about their separate, disconnected lives — people lounging, sitting alone, lingering in doorways — each isolated in their own domestic space despite sharing the same architectural frame. The cutaway composition is meticulous and cool, rendered in soft pastels that feel both familiar and faintly unsettling. Published in 2017 through Presque Lune, this is literary comics at its most carefully observed.
