You died : an anthology of the afterlife / publisher, C. Spike Trotman ; editors, Andrea Purcell & Kel McDonald ; cover artist, Nick Robles ; art director & cover design, Matt Sheridan ; proofreader, Abby Lehrke ; [foreword by Caitlin Doughty].
A diverse comics anthology of tales both real and imagined honoring death as a natural part of life, featuring cultural expressions of death from around the world.
"Death awaits us all. Really, it's the one thing we all have in common. But that doesn't make it easy to talk about. None of us can agree on what happens after the end comes, how much we should think about it beforehand, or even what death should mean to the living. And these questions make a lot of folks uncomfortable. So let's get into it! This anthology features an introduction by death positivity movement pioneer and activist mortician Caitlin Doughty, and a murderers' row of comics talent ... relating their favorite stories, myths, hopes, and suspicions about death, dying, and even The Great Beyond.
