A Shining Beacon

In A Shining Beacon, writer and artist James Albon crafts a quiet, introspective graphic novel for IDW that explores the life of a lighthouse keeper and the solitary rhythms of his coastal existence. The series, which began in 2019, distills a single, contemplative narrative into one issue, using Albon’s evocative artwork to capture the beauty and isolation of its setting. This debut stands as a self-contained meditation on duty, memory, and the human connection to the natural world.
