Squalor

Welcome to A-Time, not another dimension, not a parallel world, but your very own neighborhood bereft of linear time! Here, past, present and future merge like expressway off-ramps. Here, bestial six legged Quirks can alter the future, Glitches of powerful emotion swarm once-stable lives, and Archetypes leave (big) footprints.

After a nervous breakdown, genius double-doctorate Harry Keller wasn't looking for A-Time, but he found it. Like many explorers before him, he soon learns that the terra incognita is dazzling and dangerous, because whatever happens in A-Time also has an effect here, from benign to devastating. And, just like those explorers, Harry Keller thinks he's the first. Being wrong, of course, he stumbles onto a devious plan to have Ronald Reagan re-elected president, so he can die in office and fulfill the Zero Curse! And yes, in context, it makes total sense! Can Harry set things right before he's locked away for keeps?

Here, collected in a single volume for the first time is best-selling author Stefan Petrucha's 1989 comic book debut, with art by the late, great Tom Sutton, at his quirky best, psychedelic colors by Paul Mounts and eye-popping covers by Jeffrey K. Potter, known for his work for Analog and Asimov's Science Fiction magazines.
