What a brilliant beginning!!! First of all, I absolutely love the layout and composition of each panel! Even though I had seen little previews of it, seeing it all together I found it amazing how the meaning and mood of each panel is enhanced by the colour scheme and the style, down to the distorted last image! It fits Sam's feelings and attitude towards his life so well, his frustration and disappointment.

The dream was so intense, his childhood happiness in front of the stage being contrasted with the madness of King Lear with nightmarish scenes foreshadowing the fact that it's not really a happy dream. I love how composed he looks in the panel when he's going to work, a sign of the mask he puts on in order to move from one day to the next even though he doesn't really find any appeal to it, and this is shown in his portrayal in the middle of a crowd. And the memories if his naive moments are sad. Poor Sam, having to work so much and get so little recognition and satisfaction in return! Of course he wonders if the grass would've been greener if he had taken the path of the theater...

This is an alternative universe (AU) retelling of Sam Abramov's story.

Read his canon story, "Sam in New York," here: https://www.tapas.io/series/sam-in-new-york

--

Sam Abramov's childhood dream was to become an actor. Now a 25 year old law school graduate barely making ends meet as a legal assistant, Sam has long laid to rest his dream of making it big as an actor. He is no longer sure of his future and feels increasingly anxious about his career.

However, his life will soon radically change in more ways than one...!
