Mr Nobody
Nemo Nobody leads an ordinary existence at his wife's side, Elise, and their 3 children until the day when reality skids and he wakes up as an old man in the year 2092. At 120, Mr. Nobody is both the oldest man in the world and the last mortal of a new mankind where nobody dies anymore.
But that doesn't seem to interest or bother him very much. The only questions that preoccupy him in the present is whether he lived the right life for himself, loved the woman whom he was supposed to love, and had the children whom he was meant to have... now his purpose is to find the right answer.
So it's almost like Rip Van Winkle. I think there's a few different versions but the one I know of is,
Rip Van Winkle is a man loved by all except his wife. One autumn day, he escapes his wife by wandering up the mountains. After encountering strangely dressed men and drinking some of their liquor, he settles down under a shady tree and falls asleep. He wakes up twenty years later, only to find his wife is dead and his close friends have died in a war or gone somewhere else.
