No Such Road — A Complete Fantasy Short Comic (PDF + CBZ)

The road was erased. The people at the end of it weren't.

Mara has carried lamp wicks through this gate before. Today Tally insists that no one lives beyond it. His register says vacant. The people say otherwise - and his seal is on the survey.

A complete, darkly funny fantasy short from DMC Oddworks: six story pages, eighteen panels, plus a cover and credits. Read the whole comic free in the preview gallery. The $2 download contains the PDF, CBZ for comic-reader apps, and a plain-text transcript with panel descriptions. Digital files only.

Edition 1.1: rewritten dialogue and narration; the original illustrations and panel order are unchanged.
