Graphic Novel

Bones of the Voyager (2025)

Written by Lynn Almengor & Illustrated by Janet Figueroa

Desperate to feel creative again, indie film director Nina rounds up her community theatre friends to tell a bizarre story about telepathic alien bones.

But when her next depressive episode arrives early—in the form of a sarcastic skeleton named Vincenzo—Nina must find a way to tune him out and keep the film on track. Which wouldn’t be so hard if not for Beth, the opinionated lighting tech challenging her at every turn.

Disillusioned and running on empty, Nina wonders whether the only way to save her film is to figure out why it felt so important to make it in the first place.
