Jeremy Sorese’s debut long-form graphic novel of futuristically epic proportions juxtaposes the mechanical breakdown of the world against a compellingly quiet and human tale.

About Curveball:

Set far in to the future, after years of technological advancement the increasingly dependent relationship between humans and robot is forced to change. With energy stores depleting, humans can no longer rely on the support of their technological counterparts.

In the midst of this turmoil one woman faces her own heartbreak at the hands of a manipulative friend. Sorese wonderfully explores how the emotions of a broken heart can make us feel like the center of the universe and takes us deeper in to the realization that we aren’t often becomes more painful than the heartache itself.
