1st printing. Story and art by Ariel Slamet Ries. In the not-too-distant future, most of humanity resides on its last-ditch effort at utopia: Meridian, a remote alien planet where you're more likely to be born superhuman than left-handed. None of that is important to Oberon Afolayan. Since his mildly public breakdown, his whole life seems to be spiraling out of control-from dropping out of university to breaking up with his boyfriend, it seems like only a karmic inevitability when he wakes up one day with the ability to conjure his dreams in the real world. Oberon's newfound powers come with a facsimile of his high school crush, Kon, who mysteriously dropped off the face of the planet almost three years ago, and who is a little more infuriating (if not also infuriatingly hot) than Oberon remembers. Oberon might have more on his plate than he originally thought, but is giving up his dreams-even the one he might have accidentally fallen in love with-the only way to find happiness in reality? Hardcover, 6-in. x 9-in., 288 pages, full color. Cover price $26.99.
