This series contains four issues. Each issue may be performed separately or may be performed as a whole. The Prologue, sold separately, may also be performed at the beginning of the series.
Each issue represents an element, either an archetype, place, or an emotion, commonly found in comic book stories. As a whole, Strange Myths tells a particular story arc, one that is intentionally void of specific details, inviting the listener to imagine the particulars. Each series also contains its own sub-plot and emotional progression, suggesting the traditional symphonic form. Each issue has a duration of three to four minutes, limited to a small, but intensely expressive amount of thematic material. The challenge inherent in this limitation was to create enough contrast, yet not so much as to require more time to resolve it, therefore, each issue is self-contained.
