Stephen McCranie's Space Boy #2
In Stephen McCranie’s *Space Boy* #2, Amy’s world shifts when she meets Oliver, the boy with white hair whose fixation on nothingness unsettles her more than she expects. As she recovers from a sudden illness and returns to school, Oliver reveals a quiet transformation—his obsession with the void has become a kind of liberation, even as his past remains a mystery. Meanwhile, Zeph quietly navigates his growing feelings for Amy, while Dr. Kim and unseen others continue to study her connection to Oliver, all without fully understanding what’s unfolding. The story, written and illustrated by Stephen McCranie, features a cover by McCranie that captures the issue’s quiet, introspective tone.

Amy meets the boy with white hair [Oliver], and learns that he is obsessed with the concept of nothing, to the point of wondering whether either of them exist. Following her outing with friends, she takes sick and misses school. On her return Oliver explains that he has experienced the loss of all he knows, and that his intense focus on nothingness has allowed him to move past his rage. Meanwhile Zeph wishes to establish a closer relationship with the oblivious Amy, while Dr. Kim (and his unknown interlocutors) puzzle over her relationship with Oliver.
