The Well
Cute characters, quarter-life crises, chemical supplements, and corporate catastrophes... Jon Allen's cult-favourite online comic is now a must-read graphic novel!
Veronika is 24 and tired — of her crummy boyfriend, of living with her parents, of feeling stalled out while everyone else moved on. With a new job coding software for a "wellness" company that makes brain-boosting energy drinks, she finally has a chance to turn things around. At this rate, Veronika may never feel tired again!
But as she gets more comfortable with the office and the people in it, Veronika stumbles upon surprises in the dark that leave her questioning everything she thought she knew about the world... and about herself.
With confident cartooning and expert pacing, writer/artist Jon Allen makes his Top Shelf debut as a must-read storyteller whose anthropomorphic animals feel exquisitely human. The Well combines deadpan dialogue with thrilling plot twists, and its scepticism about techno-utopian promises is matched by its affection for relatable characters. Fans of offbeat slice-of-life stories with a hidden dark side (Bojack Horseman, Severance, The Menu, Get Out) will plunge into these pages and resurface, gasping, at the story's end.
