About the series
In this twelve-issue Image Comics series from 2019 to 2021, writer Jeff Lemire and artist Phil Hester craft a family saga where a mysterious, rapidly spreading arboreal mutation threatens to consume a fractured clan. As the tree-like transformation spreads from one generation to the next, the story explores themes of legacy, trauma, and survival in a world where nature itself has become a terrifying inheritance. A compelling blend of horror and heartfelt drama, Family Tree stands out for its distinctive visual storytelling and Lemire’s signature focus on complex, flawed characters.
