Family Man Volume I
Dylan Meconis - 2010

Until recently, Luther compensated by ignoring his heritage and climbing to the top of his Theology class at a prestigious university. When some ill-advised research takes his belief in God on an unexpected detour, however, Luther finds himself expelled from both the school and his promising career.Stuck home with his misfit family, he'll take any job that lets him lick his wounds in peace. When a mysterious colleague extends an offer that seems too good to be true, Luther must decide just how much he missed life in academia.WELCOME TO THE ENLIGHTENMENT. TRY NOT TO LOSE YOUR WAY.In an obscure university deep in the forests of Moravia, the exuberant feast of knowledge called the Enlightenment is in full swing.

Darker still are the woods outside... where human nature is forfeit to a much more brutal contract than any philosopher could devise.This volume collects the first two chapters of the acclaimed graphic novel by Dylan Meconis, serialized online at www.lutherlevy.com.
