Phantasmagoria

A singular, haunting one-shot from Fantagraphics in 1990, Phantasmagoria is a self-contained graphic novella by artist Kenneth Smith. Its black-and-white pages unfold a wordless, dreamlike narrative of a solitary figure adrift in a decaying, surreal cityscape. This eerie, atmospheric work stands as a stark and beautiful artifact of the early alternative comics scene, showcasing Smith's distinctive, melancholic linework.
