We All Got Something

When you’re always searching, you might just surprise yourself with what you find
After a rocky attempt at living in London with his partner, Lawrence finds himself single, broke, and back at home in Compton with his mom and great-aunt, moping from bed to kitchen table and back to bed again, with long layovers on the front porch to sit and watch the world pass him by. Everything had been so good―a degree, an animation internship, paid music gigs, the perfect girl. How the heck did Lawrence get knocked so far down, with such little semblance of his former life remaining to hold him together? Well, that’s a long story…
Set to a cacophonous soundtrack of church praise, playground noise, bus-stop camaraderie, and Pacific Ocean waves, Lawrence Lindell’s heartbreaking―and heartwarming―We All Got Something recounts a tragic and random act of violence, the PTSD that follows, lost love, and coming to terms with the underlying mental health crises sabotaging it all. A testament to the healing power of art and the vital role community plays in the process, Lindell’s graphic memoir is deeply personal and specific, but also relatable―because we all got something.
The follow-up to Lindell’s Eisner-nominated and Excellence in Graphic Literature Award-winning graphic novel Blackward, We All Got Something brings Lindell’s love of the comics community into a different light, and shows the author exploring deeper and darker corners of his past, with his signature blend of humour, heart, and cartoony lines.
