Spotlight: The Tipping Point
The Tipping Point
Story & Art by Various
This highly original anthology allows some of the world's greatest comics creators to explore the key moment when a clear-cut split occurs, a mutation, a personal revolt or a large-scale revolution that tips us from one world into another, from one life to an entirely new one. This moment, this momentous change, could be the beginning of a story or its end, one's pinnacle or one's fall. From slice-of-life tales to science-fiction and fantastical fables, witness these major changes and evolution through the eyes of these 14 visionaries from the worlds of manga, bande dessinée and comics.
