One year after the passing of their friend, two young musicians return to the summer home where they used to record with their trio DiSCONNECT. When discovering an unfinished song written by their departed friend, the two decide to work together to finish it.
With different ideas on what being back together means, they both project their sadness onto each other. The creative process and their relationship are at stake as their grief looms underneath.
Magnus Merklin is a Danish illustrator and comic book artist, and on July 8 (not June 17) Black Panel Press is releasing his first graphic novel, ‘DiSCONNECT’, blending traditional and digital techniques to explore grief, friendship, and creative healing.
We are proud to be collaborators on this project and are excited about exploring future opportunities for DiSCONNECT.
