LONELY RECEIVER is a horror/breakup story in five parts. Written by Zac Thompson (UNDONE BY BLOOD, THE REPLACER, HER INFERNAL DESCENT, No One's Rose, X-Men) and illustrated in color by Jen Hickman (MOTH & WHISPER, Test).
A Note From the Publisher
Fantasy treatise that boldly goes where society is already headed – straight to the heart of our relationships with our phones.
Given the unexpected new reality that so many are living in, a horror romance about a person who lives/works by themselves and the deep relationship they develop with her phone – and the aftermath of the breakup of that relationship – is incredibly timely and relevant.
Confronts the fetishization of voyeurism, violence and manipulation, laying bare the psychology behind how far we’re willing to go to please ourselves in a space where nothing is off limits.
