About the series
Cathexis is a singular, ongoing graphic novel from NBM that began in 1997, with only one issue released to date. Created by artist and writer Joe Staton, this series is a wordless, surreal fantasy odyssey told through intricate, detailed black-and-white illustrations. Its significance lies in its bold, silent storytelling—a pure visual narrative that challenges the conventional comic format and stands as a unique, meditative work from a veteran cartoonist.
