The Counselor

In The Counselor (TheNextArt Verlag, 2015–present), a mysterious figure dispenses advice to the desperate and damned in a shadowy, noir-tinged world. This five-issue series is visually defined by the atmospheric, moody art of Thomas Leopold (credited as Tomppa), whose work gives the title its haunting, introspective tone. A quiet, character-driven meditation on choice and consequence, it stands as a distinctive entry in modern independent comics.
