What do you believe happens after you die?

You go to a morality-based afterlife (e.g. Heaven/hell, Valhalla, etc)

You go to an afterlife NOT based on morality or achievement

You are reincarnated based on your deeds/morality in this life

You are reincarnated, but it's NOT related to your morality

You go back and repeat the life you just lived

You become a spirit of some sort that remains on earth

Complete nothingness

Some version of quantum immortality/you never actually reach "death"

Something else specific

Something else vague

I genuinely don't know

As some of you might recall from this essay, I spent the latter half of 2025 working on a comic for the Ships of the Sea Maritime Museum in Savannah, Georgia. Tania Sammons, a curator at the museum who had previously licensed my guide to sailors’ tattoos for a show, wrote to me with an irresistible pitch: four cartoonists would be hired, assigned a vessel from the museum's extensive collection of models, then given six months to produce a short comic for publication in an anthology alongside an accompanying museum display.

How could I say no?

My original brief was to research the Anne, the ship that brought the first colonists to Georgia, but in the aftermath of my dad's death the story took off in directions I couldn't have foreseen.

I'm releasing the whole comic online to coincide with the opening of Drawn to the Sea, the exhibition in Savannah. If you're in the area this week (or anytime over the next nine months!) you can stop in and see all the amazing work that came from myself and fellow artists Avery Hick, Rich King, and Sharon Norwood. Details about the museum show are here.

In the meantime, here's a very personal comic.
