    In 1996, Grant Morrison nearly died from a staph infection that mirrored what they'd written happening to their comic book character months earlier. Collapsed lung. Face being destroyed. Two days to live.Their explanation? The comic was a spell. And they'd forgotten to write themselves out.This is the story of the hypersigil—a technology for editing reality using fiction as the interface. How Morrison built a six-year magical operation disguised as a comic book called The Invisibles. What it cost them. And the question you should probably be asking: are you already inside one?
