In "At the Heart of Trees," writer Julian Lytle and artist John Timms craft a haunting, quiet tale of isolation and resilience, following a Japanese soldier on a remote Pacific island who lives unaware of the war’s end. With the help of a small, mysterious plant that whispers of connection, he prepares for a confrontation that may never come—caught between duty and the fragile hope of being heard. The story unfolds with a quiet intensity, illustrated in lush, evocative detail by John Timms and Gabe Eltaeb, and brought to life with a striking cover by Mike Perkins.
