Pizzeria Kamikaze

In Pizzeria Kamikaze, a man who has taken his own life finds himself in a strange, liminal afterlife: a vast desert populated by other suicides, all working at a single, lonely pizzeria. This single-issue graphic novel, published by Actes Sud in 2008, is a poignant and surreal meditation on regret, connection, and the search for meaning beyond death. Written and drawn by the acclaimed team of writer Etgar Kerret and artist Asaf Hanuka, the story distills a profound emotional journey into a deceptively simple, haunting setting. Its quiet power and unique premise have made it a touchstone of modern existential comics.
