A Certain Symmetry
This short, self-contained and "symmetrical" comic (mirrored front to back) was created in 2014 as a preview for a larger project exploring the unlikely friendship and rivalry of Harry Houdini and Arthur Conan Doyle.
Houdini and Doyle were two of the most influential men of their time. Each led extraordinary lives in his own right, but their lives also overlapped in astonishing ways. Their mutual admiration brought them together and the two men became fast friends, even accompanying one another on family holidays. And yet their conflicting beliefs and goals resulted in a heated rivalry. They died bitter and distant from each other, never reconciling.
