The debut issue of what will hopefully become an ongoing publication, Mirror Neuron 1 includes two original short stories in over 25 pages of comics, plus a variety of bonus material. The first story, "Of Course, No One Knew", is about the memory of a distant summer dredged up by a DVD commentary. The second story, "The Situation", is about a toad exterminator in suburban Florida who's faced with an ethical predicament.

It was previously published under the title Sanity Check, which still appears in the images above.

Praise for Issue 1

“Ivy Lynn Allie’s [...] short fiction is exceptionally clever, subtle, and unsettling, and her ability to effortlessly cross genres mark her as someone who can go in any direction as a cartoonist and do well. [Mirror Neuron] was one of the better minicomics I read in 2020.”
