Far Out West #1
"Far Out West" #1, written and illustrated by Even Eve, kicks off a surreal, self-reflective journey through the mind of Polly Morfus, a young woman navigating the threshold of adulthood. Trapped in a corridor of a zillion doors, she's guided by a computer-like voice—her own subconscious—to explore 37 human instincts, each door leading to a different life path, from communes to cults to family dynamics, all testing her independence. With a bold, hand-drawn aesthetic and a dreamlike narrative, this first issue sets up a unique exploration of identity and autonomy, ending with Polly joining others who seek to build their own utopia.

Polly Morfus, on the cusp of adulthood like Alice in Wonderland, finds herself in a corridor with a "zillion" doors. A computer (her subconscious) explains she must explore the 37 human instincts and all the doors (leading to different scenarios) to find "the righteous high", or true happiness. Polly journeys through communes, relationships, cults, family time, and more, but everyone wants to control her thinking. Finally she finds some free-thinking companions who set out to make their own utopia. "End of Book One"
