People leave their dreams behind all the time. But what if the dream is YOU? That’s a fate the Princess of the Dream Realm wants to avoid. And to get her friend Robbie back, she’s going to do something unprecedented — enter the waking world. Unfortunately, that’s exactly what an old enemy’s been counting on… LITTLE NEMO IN SLUMBERLAND meets DEGRASSI, and fantasy worlds meet the halls of high school in this character-driven adventure comic, inspired by the vibrant life and work of Winsor McCay.

Von der hinteren Coverseite

Sometimes growing up means leaving your dreams behind. For Robbie Boone, childhood fantasies are giving way to a very real goal of being an animator. And he’s giving it all he’s got -- even if he misses out on the rest of high school in the process. Enter the Princess of the Dreaming Realm, Robbie’s childhood best friend. Sick of being outgrown by human companions, she’s determined to find out what’s so special about the Waking World. Unfortunately, that might be exactly what an old enemy’s been counting on... ENCHANTED meets DEGRASSI, in a character-driven high school dramedy, inspired by Winsor McCay’s classic comic strip LITTLE NEMO IN SLUMBERLAND. “Wonders abound as nuanced characterization makes Waking Life a genuinely fresh reinterpretation of Winsor McKay’s original dream genre, reinvigorating the classic premise for modern readers.” - Bryan J.L. Glass (THE MICE TEMPLAR) “A delightful new spin on an old classic - Ben Humeniuk launches his innovative cartooning into dreamland with gusto!” - Jonny Jimison (THE DRAGON LORD SAGA)
