The Fly

In Lewis Trondheim's wordless, single-issue series for NBM, a housefly's mundane existence is transformed into a miniature odyssey of survival and perception. Through Trondheim's expressive, detailed linework, the comic explores the vast scale of a kitchen from an insect's vantage point, turning everyday objects into obstacles and predators. This 2021 debut is a masterclass in visual storytelling, proving that a compelling narrative needs no words at all.
