1st issue has some great pieces, still finding its feet a bit and I had real mixed feelings about the Silicon Valley disrupting death segment but overall a great book.

This is a beautiful little nugget of human creation. Humorous and heartbreaking. Using captivating images and just a few words to have a frank discussion about death with us, and I think we could all use a bit more of that in our lives. Highly recommend.

Can't quite give it a 5/5 because anthologies are so hard to rate, but I loved it

I was given this as a gift and wasn’t entirely sure what I was getting into but I really loved this. It had it’s moments of hilarity and it’s moments of utter heartbreak.

The first print magazine from the well-respected comics-journalism site The Nib tackles death as its introductory subject. There are memorials to much-missed deceased creatives (David Bowie, Sylvia Plath), essays on grief, the death penalty and anti-aging research; interviews, statistics and short humorous strips from various cartoonists about their plans for their remains. A solid start. I look forward to the topics they will cover next!
