“Chapter Three: Lost Causes”

In "Chapter Three: Lost Causes," James Sturm delivers a wry, character-driven moment as Amy reflects on her childhood, recalling how her parents, inspired by Consumer Reports, banned sugary cereals in favor of healthier breakfasts—ironically making her the ideal reader for a comic like this. With his distinctive art and storytelling, Sturm crafts a quietly humorous, self-aware narrative that lingers in the space between memory and irony, all rendered in his signature style. The cover, also by Sturm, complements the tone with its sharp, expressive line work.
