The City on the Other Side

In The City on the Other Side, a young girl from early 20th-century San Francisco is pulled into a hidden fairy realm where a war between two magical factions threatens both worlds. This 2018 graphic novel from First Second, written and illustrated by M.K. Perker, weaves a standalone, atmospheric tale of identity and courage against a backdrop of luminous, otherworldly art. Though a single issue, it stands as a self-contained story that showcases Perker’s distinctive blend of historical detail and fantasy.
