Synopsis

The compelling saga of a man who lives forever. Germaine pulls the memories of those about to die and binds them into his own. He is a blend of memories and his own mind is a history of mankind. Germaine can claim immortality yet he has died a thousand deaths. He has traversed the paths of mankind for untold years with his companion, Lilith. But Lilith's disappearance and the perils of the modern world direct him to undertake a new quest — to surrender his immortality. This is the introductory story of Saint Germaine and collects the Saint Germaine comic series, issues 1-4 plus a bonus story - 'The Tragedy of Falstaff', based on the character created by William Shakespeare. Reviews: “A jewel of writing and design…a work that dares to dream.”- Lino Terlichi, Drive Magazine (Italy). “…taken alternative comics into the next level of storytelling. I am in awe.”---Jazma Online. “Eclectic, dense with meaning…the most intriguing immortal in comics since Neil Gaiman’s Hob Gabling.” - Barry Lyga, Under the Reading Lamp, Diamond Comics. “…a stunning example of the power of the medium. It should be exalted.” - John L. Kruze. “Outstanding, simply outstanding. They don’t get any better than this.” - Alicia Simmons, Fiction World.
