Katharsis

In this stark, black-and-white graphic novel from German publisher S. Fischer Verlag, artist Luz crafts a haunting, wordless journey through the aftermath of a cataclysm. Since its 2016 debut, this single-issue comic has used its silent, expressive panels to explore themes of survival and memory in a devastated landscape. Luz's distinctive, detailed linework gives the story a timeless, almost mythic quality, making Katharsis a powerful standalone work in the European comics tradition.
