New York Public Library Best Comics for Adults 2024

Within our visible world, there are hidden worlds full of unknown forces whose nature we cannot fathom. Ocultos swirls together a series of stories that form a bridge between our world to the next, where thoughts and dreams can bend and shape reality. A woman in therapy is haunted by disturbing visions; a lonely widower feels a presence wafting through her house; a little boy sees bright red lights flash across the night sky. Vivid dreams, poignant symbols, fleeting sensationsβ€”all clues that point to an understanding of what lies beyond.

Celebrated for her previous graphic novel, Totem, Spanish comics artist Laura PΓ©rez presents another entrancing vision of magic and mystery. Artfully rendered in her signature wispy, atmospheric pencil lines punctuated by splashes of colour, Ocultos is a spiritual, reflective work that will leave you spellbound.
