Der Magnet

In Der Magnet, Swiss artist Lucas Harari and writer Christoph Schuler craft a quietly unsettling one-shot graphic novel from Edition Moderne, following a young man whose chance encounter with a mysterious magnetic phenomenon begins to warp his perception of reality. Harari’s atmospheric, clean-line art—reminiscent of European bande dessinée—anchors this slow-burn psychological tale, which probes how obsession and the inexplicable can reshape everyday life. Though a single issue, it stands as a striking, self-contained work from a notable European publisher.
