Starting with a wordless prologue that serves as an origin point for the themes of family, isolation, violence, survival, and revenge, the book plunges into the storylines of eighteen families across four centuries and multiple continents. You don’t need to have read One Soul or The People Inside to enjoy One Line, though it helps in appreciating the journey of the series’ experimental, multilinear form. There’s something oracular about Ray Fawkes’ One Line - the whole One Soul series, frankly - but this book particularly stretches the boundaries of sequential art and meta-comics, and reading it gives me the sense that as I turn the pages, the book is also reading me.
