How would you live with nothing but your name? Manel Naher wants out.
Translated by Aleshia Jensen..
An exciting debut from a fresh perspective, The Great Beyond showcases newcomer Léa Murawiec\'s command of comics language and satirizes a sprawling metropolis, its politics, and its extraordinary inhabitants.
Sharp, architectural lines are accented by decisively mellow hues, building a humorously grim world unexpectedly bathed in nothing but light.
This stylish, absurd comedy of contemporary manners skewers the human condition in persistent self-promo.
When a sudden heart attack induced by diminished name recognition foils Manel\'s plans, gradual change becomes a catalyst for a complete lifestyle overhaul.
But Manel is looking a little bit farther, just Beyond the horizon, and she\'s even convinced her buddy Ali of how much more could be lying in wait right outside city limits.
The city is unbearable--endless high-rises, social climbers left and right, and nothing but names as far as the eye can see.
It\'s even tougher when you share a name with a rising pop star.
In a world where your name is currency, it\'s tough to make ends meet.
