Equal parts The Fountain, The Holy Mountain, and The Little Prince in spirit, what sets Wednesday with Goddard apart is its use of Chinese artist Manshen Lo's fleecy pencil drawings.

It's no stretch to reference the earnestness of childhood crusades à la Philip Pullman's His Dark Materials or the frank fatalism of Mordicai Gerstein's The Mountains of Tibet. Reader beware: knowledge comes with a price, and, be they in hearts or time-space, some cuts aren't meant to be healed.Check out Wednesday with Goddard below:
