THE FIRST IMPRESSION — IN PROGRESS

The opening pages of the BLOT comic. Read in order. Do not expect an answer.

Cover of BLOT: Chapter One — the original handmade linocut impression
COVER — THE ORIGINAL IMPRESSION

Every story in this world begins with the same sheet of paper.

The cover of Chapter One is the original hand-pulled linocut — the physical mark that started everything. The comic does not leave the print behind. It carries it forward.

MYSTERY. IMPRESSION. POWER. UNKNOWN.
