Ray Fawkes, 18 People, and 'One Soul' Charles Webb 04/04/ To hear it from the Oni Press PR, Ray Fawkes' July OGN One Soul is something of an ambitious undertaking for not only the writer. Ray Fawkes: Well, one soul was the story about 18 individual lives and I felt that. No, as I was creating it I was telling the entire story of the lives of the people in it. But there was a piece that was always kind of missing for me. I'm pleased to say no one else has said this. One Soul details the lives of eighteen individuals throughout history whose lives unfold simultaneously. Comprised entirely of double page spreads split into eighteen panels with each panel featuring one character's life, cartoonist Ray Fawkes uses an experimental narrative structure to artfully craft eighteen linear stories into one non-linear.

The tenth anniversary edition of One Soul will be available as a metallic foil-stamped hardcover. For Oni-Lion Forge editor Shawna Gore, working with Ray on both One Soul and the upcoming continuation of Fawkes’ experimental graphic novel, One Line, felt incredibly special in a year like In writer-artist Ray Fawkes released One Soul, a highly ambitious work that told multiple narratives near simultaneously. For each double page readers concurrently followed the lifetimes of eighteen individuals across different time periods and places via the smart utilisation of the classic nine-panel grid. One Soul is literally about a single human spirit, passing from one life into the next in some form of reincarnation.2 Fawkes begins his book with the birth of all eighteen of his protagonists in each of their individual eras and contexts. As the book progresses, he keeps all his characters at roughly the same age so that when we're seeing the freshly post-adolescent shepherd struggle with homosexual leanings, we're also seeing the freshly post-adolescent Parisian dancer hundreds of years later.
