Troglodytes

A single-issue painted comic from the Dutch publisher Oog & Blik, Troglodytes (1999) is a wordless, prehistoric vision by artist Marcel Ruijters. The story follows a caveman’s violent, primal struggle for survival in a stark, unforgiving landscape, rendered in bold, expressionistic colors. This stark, silent narrative showcases Ruijters’ raw, graphic style and stands as a distinctive, self-contained work in European alternative comics.
