The year is 5244, and humanity has been on pause. Despite centuries of technological advancements, society has stagnated, glued to their phones. Knowledge, ambition, and human connection have crumbled. SOB442 a 12 year old.Is different. A self-proclaimed genius in a sea of mindless phone addicts, he feels like the last person alive who craves something more—knowledge, purpose, meaning. In a world where even his family barely looks up from their devices, SOB442’s only friend is TFR100, a friend so absorbed in tech he barely knows how to speak.But everything changes the day they stumble upon a mysterious object in TFR’s basement: a “slab” unlike anything they’ve ever seen. Made of leather and filled with strange, thin sheets—paper—it carries a title: The Adventures of Shawn and Tucker. To SOB442, it’s not just a curiosity; it’s a relic from a forgotten era, a key to uncovering humanity’s lost history. Determined to uncover the truth behind the slab, SOB442 embarks on a quest to learn what the book holds and why it was buried in a world that’s forgotten how to read. Along the way, he’ll face resistance from a society that sees no value in the past, a government that thrives on ignorance, and his own doubts about whether one kid can reignite the spark of human curiosity. In a world where everyone is online, can one boy reconnect humanity to the stories that made it human?

Hi there, I just came across Tomorrow, Stuck On Repeat, and this story immediately caught my attention. I love how it opens with such a sharp, satirical hook. SOB442 narrating from a future where humanity has regressed into a screen addicted, illiterate, emoji shorthand society where actual books and independent thought have all but vanished, only to stumble upon a mysterious leather bound slab with an author line left deliberately blank in his best friend's basement. That mix of biting social satire and quiet mystery sets such a distinctive, engaging tone. The contrast between SOB442's frustrated intelligence in a world that's forgotten how to think and the strange, cinnamon scented pod that crashes through the ceiling with no explanation gives the story a lot of visual potential. I'd love to create a character illustration or cinematic scene capturing SOB442 staring down at the ancient, textured pages of the mysterious slab for the first time, the egg shaped pod embedded through TFR100's bathroom floor with its glowing CORE orb pulsing softly, or SOB442's manic, triumphant laughter as he realizes the abbreviated names of his dulled down society trace back to a decades old experiment called Project UJO. There's a great mix of dystopian satire, mysterious found artifact intrigue, and a protagonist's hunger for forbidden knowledge to draw from. I do manga style commission art, and stories with sharp dystopian satire, mysterious sci fi artifacts, and a protagonist's obsessive pursuit of buried truth are exactly the kind of stories I love bringing to life through illustration.
