Sina Grace is returning to his slice-of-life roots in SELF-OBSESSED, a new graphic memoir from Image Comics. Spawned from the one-shot of the same name, SELF-OBSESSED debuts over 80 pages of new material, providing readers an intimate peek in the brain of an artist asking himself what depths he’ll need to plumb to be anybody’s somebody.

After a critically successful run on two BURN THE ORPHANAGE mini-series, a return to the cult favorite LI’L DEPRESSED BOY, and the launch of the all-ages series PENNY DORA & THE WISHING BOX, Sina thought 2014 was his year to shine. Unfortunately, a number of personal tribulations-- including a death in the family and the end of a longterm relationship-- derailed all momentum and sent him spiraling into a depression. After leaving his hometown of Los Angeles and traveling across the American Southwest, Sina found his passion project for 2015: himself.

“It felt like the world took away every incentive to live, love, and make stories,” Sina says. “After a lot of grieving and introspection, I decided that all I wanted to do was tell stories that were 100% the realest me I could give the reader. #YOLO.”

Influenced by nights spent poring over Joan Didion, Arthur Rimbaud, and Anders Nilsen, the scope of stories in SELF-OBSESSED reflect the ups-and-downs of breaking into comics, reconciling relationships past, and discovering what true selfhood looks like. Mixed with long-forgotten strips unearthed from the creator’s messy archives, conversations with contemporaries Ryan O’Connell and Colleen Green, as well as essays exploring gender, identity, and pursuing one’s dreams, Grace brings a whole new spin to memoir for the Twitter age.

SELF-OBSESSED arrives 9/30 and will be available for $9.99. The graphic novel will include an introduction from Jeff Lemire (DESCENDER, SWEET TOOTH), as well as a free audiobook download.
