First off, a big thank you to the author @anthracite, for giving me permission to post her work. Marked as OC as it's her original content.

This is one of those works that breaks the traditional boundaries of the medium its presented in. The art style is vivid, and integral to the interweaving narrative as the protagonist moves through multiple realities. For such an ambitious work, it's remarkably tightly written, with a subtly and depth lacking in traditional comic work. Trauth's styling is unique - combining art-deco, surrealism, and pop-art with intensely strong linework and dynamic framing with the compositional skill of Lichenstein. This is not your average comic - this is a unique piece of art and an excellent story.

@anthracite I've been reading Decrypting Rita and it's brilliant - I love the way you weave the narrative through multiple realities, and your use of the colorwork to define each world works beautifully. May I have your permission to share it on the kbin community magazine @13thFloor?
