Cages

Dave McKean’s Cages is a singular, painterly graphic novel from Kitchen Sink Press, first collected in 1998 after its original serialization. Written and fully painted by McKean, it weaves together the lives of artists, musicians, and neighbors in a single apartment building, exploring creativity, connection, and the stories we tell. A landmark of visual storytelling, it remains a defining work of McKean’s career and a touchstone for the medium’s artistic potential.
