In Limbo

In In Limbo (2023–present, First Second), debut creator Deb JJ Lee crafts a graphic memoir that traces the author’s teenage years as a Korean American immigrant navigating high school, family, and mental health. Through expressive, soft-toned art, the series explores the quiet weight of depression and the search for belonging during a pivotal, uncertain time. It matters as a deeply personal, visually poetic account of growing up between cultures and coping with inner turmoil.
