In Spectrum, music brings hopeful melancholy and connection with beautiful orchestration
From the avant-garde to the pop charts, the fate of the universe hangs in the balance. Mad Cave Studios calls music fans from all walks for the exciting unveiling of the supernatural adventure Spectrum, written by Rick Quinn with art by mystical comic auteur by Dave Chisholm.
Melody Parker is losing her mind. She’s living on the streets of Seattle during the WTO protests of 1999. She is seeing things. Androids. Aliens. Pigs in high fashion. And a creature named Echo—one of the Sustained: elemental beings with the power to alter reality through music. She invites Melody to join her as she brings about the end of the world. As Melody tries to escape this strange woman, suppressed memories from across vast spans of time flood into her awareness, bringing her very identity into question.
If The Sandman had a melody, mixed with The Invisibles and Echolands, dashed with a bit of Music is History by Questlove and Twin Peaks, there you’ll find Spectrum.
Featuring cover A by Dave Chisholm and cover B by Reiko Murakami. The six-issue series is set to release this November, beginning with Spectrum #1.
