Monologues for the Coming Plague

by Anders Nilsen

Description

A darkly comic and surreal graphic work, this collection moves from sharp gag cartoons to paranoid monologues contemplating apocalypse, catastrophe, and the strange logic of modern life. Drawing on contemporary politics, pop culture, religion, and existential anxiety, it creates a fragmented yet compelling portrait of a world on the brink. Anders Nilsen’s expressive, highly inventive draftsmanship gives each page the feeling of an animated cartoon in progress, balancing absurd humor with unsettling speculation. The result is an audacious and distinctive work about fear, belief, and the stories people tell themselves when the future becomes impossible to predict.
