Panel 1: NOW. A nude man sits on a bed which has had its sheets messed up, facing away from us. Sunlight from a window pours into the bedroom, illuminating his back. In the foreground, a second man is nearly done getting dressed. We can't see his face, but his wedding band glints in the low night. The narration reads, "Have you ever had a song stuck in your head?"

Panel 2: The dressed man slings his suit coat over his shoulder as he turns back to ask, "Same time next Thursday?" The nude man tilts his chin in the other man's direction, his long black bangs obscuring his eyes as he answers, "Yeah."

Panel 3: The nude man looks away, as a door closes behind him.

Panel 4: He hangs in his head in his hands and says, "Fuck."

Hello, all! Thank you for being here! This moment has been so, so long in the making, I can't quite wrap my head around the fact that it's finally here. I'm Kody, the cartoonist behind Keeping Time. You're about to start reading a project that I've spent the past few years developing. This will be a long-form story about grief and tragedy and music, and above all, love. I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoy creating it.
