The story follows ODYSSEA; a disillusioned, unapologetically fierce mermaid who abandons the deep to live among the humans she loathes.
Gritty, atmospheric, darkly surreal, and laced with humor, ODYSSEA is a reluctant hero's journey set in the emotionally flooded ruins of a once-vibrant beachside city now drowning in its past. It explores identity, alienation, neurodivergence, environmental collapse, and the burden of unwanted power.
ODYSSEA is the debut graphic novel by Berlin based writer and creator Amy Fleming and illustrator Amy Brutton. Passionate about genre-defying narratives that use hope, humor, and the supernatural to explore themes of trauma and transformation. ODYSSEA is the result of a combination of countless sketches, conversations, and creative sparks, all flowing together into a story that feels as strange as it is familiar.
