After the Dream is a webcomic about an underworld conspiracy and the lives that it touches. The story centers around the character Rhyda Izguerra, who is having a rough time lately. She's stuck working at a strip club, her girlfriend Molly just broke up with her, and she's nursing a cocaine addiction. To top things off, she's being haunted by disturbing otherworldly visions. A mysterious stranger named Gregory Kincaid seems to know something of Rhyda's past. He claims that her hallucinations are the result of an illicit pharmaceutical test which Rhyda's morther participated in while pregnant. Unbeknownst to Rhyda's mother, she was dosed with a powerful dissociative compound called Adonai by Advanced Intelligence Services, a shady private corporation. Rhyda soon meets other survivors of AIS's experiments and becomes enmeshed in a struggle to shine a light on the corporation's sinister plans.
