  • Love

    Abstract

    An uplifting celebration of the joy that love in all its unique, quirky and diverse dimensions can bring us. Alberta Comics Love features 50 original short comic stories told by Albertan storytellers. From romance to comedy, memoir to science fiction. A group of sparrows, tired from their flight, take refuge inside a heart-shaped hole. A tree spirit proves itself to be muse, mentor and best friend. Two young nuns laboriously write, hide, then destroy love letters to each other. In this second volume of comics by Alberta creators, love wins the day, in all kinds of ways.

    Abstract

    Hamish McKenzie stood welded to the spot as fifty million volts coursed through his body. He was dead before he hit the ground. Dealanch was never wrong. Lightning stalks the first-born of three generations of the McKenzie clan from Scotland to Ottawa to Saskatchewan as each successive son looks over their shoulder knowing it was not a question of if, but when the paranormal would strike.
