Henry Speaks for Himself

In Henry Speaks for Himself (2014–present, Fantagraphics), the iconic newspaper strip Henry is revisited through a single-issue comic that collects the wordless, gag-driven adventures of its bald, mute protagonist. Artist John Liney, the longtime steward of the strip after its creator, brings his clean, expressive linework to these silent, universally charming panels. This collection matters as a preservation of a classic, dialogue-free comic tradition, offering a pure, visual humor that transcends language.
