Beautiful Canvas

Lon Eisley is a hitwoman hired to kill a small child a few days after discovering her girlfriend pregnant. In a bold declaration of uncertainty, she saves the boy and hits the road, despite the fact her boss clearly wanted him dead for a reason. This warped crime dystopia delves into the emotional dichotomy of creator/destroyer as Lon tries to connect the two very different worlds she now inhabits. From Sami Kivela (Chum) & Ryan K Lindsay (Negative Space, DC Writers Workshop) comes a gonzo tale of personal discovery, animal/hybrid hit troupes, and reactive pyrokinesis.

All things converge on Alex Ellroy, as Lon Eisley wonders if maybe she was supposed to kill this small child after all. A mindreader walks through Alex's very messy issues, a rich villain wants to manipulate his new abilities, and an unhinged ex-government agent just wants to talk. All while a city prepares to burn. Lindsay & Kivela bring you a gonzo dystopian tale of brutal parenting, fragile dreamscapes, and warped relationships.

It's been a big week for Lon Eisley as she's transitioned from accepting money to kill people, to saving one kid's life, to now having to save an entire city from the machinations of a billionaire wannabe Bond villain just looking for a way to vent her desire for more street art featuring burnt skin and boiled blood. When there are no good choices left, your only option is to look good making the worst ones, right? From Sami Kivela [CHUM] & Ryan K Lindsay [NEGATIVE SPACE, and DC Writers Workshop] comes a gonzo dystopian tale of pyrokinetic sleeper agents, bitter exes, and beautiful art.

A showdown on a zephyr. Every sacrifice hurts. Love endures and obliges. Lon Eisley has had a good run, but her story ends here. Stay in your seats for the coda, though, because the end is the beginning is, etc. From Sami Kivela [CHUM] & Ryan K Lindsay [NEGATIVE SPACE, and DC Writers Workshop] comes this masterful conclusion to a gonzo dystopian tale of villain zephyr fortresses, a scorched Earth, and brutally hard choices.
