Cogs & Caves

That small, sparkling mechanism resting upon your palm, is one of the last remnants of our existance; the last link between our peoples, between our shared history.
Do you know the tale of its origin?

The spark of ingenuity.
The spark that creates, divides and engulfs the worlds.
The spark of humanity.

We-Who-Grew-With-You and We-Who-Now-Watch, have borne witness to your cycles: common cause, division, common cause once more.
You forget, but we remember.
Will you learn from you past and find common ground with one another, or will you remain one and other?

The self-replicating Prime Being departed this planet long ago but the Remnants they left behind still tell the tale of their existence and inspire humanity to reach for the stars.  How did Dr Alderdice and Saber-tooth first meet and is there more to this site than just another archaeological dig?

Mythology, history, folk tale, religion, doctrine: all meld into one for this Remnant, who is starting to understand the potency of storytelling. The Remnant in Borneo speaks to archaeologist, Dr Eylsa Alderdice, and graffiti artist Saber-Tooth, about the links between story telling and the destruction of their environment. 

When graffiti artist, Sabre-Tooth, stumbles upon a ruined amphitheater, they participate in a history lesson with a Remnant.

A final warning from the Prime Being, as it left its Remnants behind; let the humans live their lives without interference.
Us Remnants only wanted to help, to provide warning of dangers you could not see. But can you heed warning of danger beyond that which affects your short lives?

Item Subtitle

Graffiti artist ,Saber-tooth, and Archaeologist, Dr Eylsa Alderdice, travel to Iceland to seek an unusual Remnant: one that may have influenced the humans on the island far more recently than Remnants have throughout the rest of the world.

Circles by George Joy

What would you exchange for status?

What would you give up to be accepted?

What restrictions would you impose to keep your circle together?

Item Subtitle

Dr Alderdice and Sabertooth travel to Morocco, skirting the Sahara Desert to find a Remnant that separated from the Prime Being before it left the Earth; it's ancient, tumultuous relationship with the humans in its vicinity so different from that of the Remnants they have met so far.

Convention

Written and Lettered by George Joy ~ Illustrated by Sarah Peploe

Set at the Berlin Comic Convention, the 'Stalking Thoughts' team have a new comic to sell, an unsettling piece that explores the nature of fear itself... much like this story.

Mobirise

A telephone...

The telephone itself was just an artefact in the boutique Berlin hotel room. Always there, in the corner of the room.

Mobirise

... a comics convention...

But when you are selling a comic whose origins you aren't sure of, with a story that gets inside your head...

Mobirise

...and a little imagination.

...even the most common-place artefact can become something to be fear.
