  • Description

Dorothy Weaver is an anxious 19-year old still living at home with her mother and failing a vocational art course when memories of a mysterious childhood event start resurfacing.

Something about a meteor in the garden… Now, she and others have begun manifesting strange powers.

Are these powers a gift or a curse? Psychic phenomenon or mass delusion? Either way, Dorothy is changing - but into what?

"In Cuckoo, coming-of-age anxieties and reality bending superpowers feel equally believable, thanks to an attention to detail which makes the fantastical feel utterly relatable. Joe Sparrow has given us a personal and touching portrait of a young person on the brink of adulthood, with some of the tightest and most spectacular cartooning you're ever likely to see." - Luke Pearson, author of the Hilda comics
