Plot: After spending a decade in Washington, DC, native Clevelander Chad Bilyeu emigrated to the Netherlands. He has been residing in Amsterdam since 2009, looking for something different but not certain as to what precisely. This is the tale of an obstinate autodidact in one of the world’s most infamous places. Amsterdam is a city that most people know of but do not know much about. This comic book is a portrait of a diverse metropolis as presented by a man destined to live there.
