World Reader

In World Reader, Jeff Loveness and Juan Doe craft a taut, six-issue science-fiction thriller for AfterShock, set in a near-future where humanity has unlocked the ability to directly experience the memories and lives of others—a power that becomes a dangerous weapon in a fractured society. Loveness’s sharp, character-driven writing pairs with Doe’s moody, expressive art to explore identity, empathy, and the price of connection. This compact series stands out as a thoughtful, visually striking meditation on how technology can both unite and divide us, making it a memorable entry in the publisher’s catalog of creator-driven stories.
