Explorer: The Hidden Doors

In Explorer: The Hidden Doors (2014–present, Harry N. Abrams), writer-artist Johane Matte launches a standalone graphic novel that opens a series of fantastical portals, each leading to a different world of mystery and adventure. This single-issue volume collects a trio of short stories, each centered on a hidden door and the unexpected journey it reveals, blending whimsical art with gentle suspense. A warm, self-contained entry in the Explorer anthology line, it showcases Matte’s singular vision as both storyteller and illustrator, inviting readers to step through the threshold of imagination.
