Arthur magazine spotted this on the blog of Rick Veitch, one of the best artists in weird comics. Rick Veitch did some of the best issues of Alan Moore’s Swamp Thing in the 80s, taking on the art duties after Steve Bisette and John Totleben. He later took on the writing duties as well after Moore left, and became a one-man tank churning out monthly issues of the best horror comic at DC. As far as I know those issues have never been collected, but they’re amazing. Anyway, Mr. Veitch just saw his soul in a dream:

Over the last couple weeks I’ve found myself in a number on conversations with different people about the nature of the soul. The soul is one of those subjects that everyone has an opinion of but nobody really knows what the darn thing is or even if it really exists. Interestingly, I had a dream the other night in which I saw my soul! It was basically a globe with lots of geometric shapes attached that was constantly changing at a rapid rate. I’ve made a quick little black and white animation that kind of gets it across. In the dream there was an ever-changing riot of pattern and color on each of the geometric shapes. Maybe at some point I’ll do a color version of this to make it complete…
