In "null," Lewis Trondheim navigates the quiet tension of preparing for his wedding, facing the priest who will marry him while caught in a swirl of self-doubt and daydreams. As he reflects on his life and work, including the Japanese serialization of one of his comics, the familiar presence of Brigitte, Father Vincent, The Fly, Judge, and Pierre-Alain adds subtle weight to the moment.
