Forevr



Why say goodbye? Death is only a temporary glitch in this eerily plausible future from award-winning graphic novelist Brian “Box” Brown.

Brenda’s mom is dying—but not for long. Like millions of others, she’s uploaded her consciousness to the groundbreaking new app Forevr, which allows the surviving family members to chat with her on their screens for a very reasonable monthly fee. Now Brenda’s dad doesn’t have to be alone…while Brenda and her girlfriend focus on building their careers as wilderness survival influencers. But when this very modern family sets out on a camping trip, their tensions and tech addictions build to an explosive climax whose consequences may last…forever.

Praise for Forevr

  • "Brown’s minimalist, angular cartooning and brisk narrative ellipses keep the prickly satire light on its feet" - Publishers Weekly
  • "Box Brown is a cartoonist whose style reads almost quintessentially. These are cartoons that feel timeless, even if the stories they are used to convey are hyper modern, niche, or otherwise subversive. Using such amiable-seeming style to tell a touching, perhaps alarming, story of loss and technological overreach, feels perfectly juxtaposed." - AiPT Comics
  • "This near-future vision of disrupted bereavement skewers tech’s colonization of human connection." - Publishers Weekly
  • "a smart, dry, domestic comedy" - Slings & Arrows
  • "A cautionary tale" - Kirkus Reviews
  • "Forevr feels deeply of the moment, considering the ways corporations might monetize the ability to use artificial intelligence to manipulate the grieving." - Comic Book Herald
