'One' Cover

"One" is a graphic novel about Jonathan Greene, a wealthy CEO of a global oil company called Globoil. He has recently started construction of an Artic Pipeline, that will surely ruin the artic's delicate ecosystem. In a staff meeting about the pipeline, Jonathan is surprised by a strange woman preaching of death and destruction by his hand. After she is promptly escorted from the meeting room, he is surprised to find her in his office only moments later. It turns out that this woman is Gaia, the Spirit of the Earth (aka: Mother Nature). She takes Jonathan on a trip through time and space to see just what damage his wheeling and dealing has done, and will do to the fabric of our planet and society. Jonathan is reluctant to realize that he is helping to cause such mayhem. Gaia, hanging by her last nerve, plunges Jonathan 50 years into the future, where the toxic environment and mankind's crumbled, war-torn civilizations are finally wiped clean by Mother Nature's fury. In the aftermath, Jonathan pledges to change his ways to try and prevent the dismal future humanity will bring upon itself. When he wakes up back in his office, Jonathan convinces himself that it was all a dream, and goes right back to being the ignorant, money-driven man he's always been. That night, Gaia cracks open the ice underneath Jonathan's pipeline and swallows it whole into the depths of the Earth. Upon seeing the news the next morning, and an image of the woman he thought was only in his "dream" at the scene of the collapse, Jonathan breaks down. He again swears to change his ways. Is he lying again? is it too late? Only time will tell.
