1Tonight we're discussing Daytripper!
Daytripper is a ten-issue American comic book limited series by brothers Fábio Moon and Gabriel Bá, published by the DC Comics imprint Vertigo.
Brás de Oliva Domingos, the protagonist of the story, is the son of Benedito, an internationally renowned writer. He dreams to become one himself, but spends a good part of his early career writing the obituaries for a local newspaper. Only in his free time does he pursue his dream of being a novelist, which finally leads to the release of his first book. During the course of the ten episodes, however, the reader witnesses important days in Brás' life, including the challenges he is facing: travel, family, relationship, childhood, fatherhood. Each episode ends in a different version of him dying, all addressing the big questions of 'what is the meaning of life?' and 'what do you want to do with your life?'
It is often named among the best graphic novels of the modern era. Prominent reviewer GoodOKBad gave it a perfect 3-star rating and praised the art and emotion that is brought along with the characters.
