The End of the World

Don Hertzfeldt’s The End of the World is a singular, ongoing comic from Antibookclub that began in 2013 with a single, self-contained issue. Written and drawn entirely by Hertzfeldt, it distills his signature existential dread and deadpan absurdity into a stark, black-and-white meditation on apocalypse. Despite its brief publication history, the series stands as a potent, minimalist statement from one of independent animation’s most distinctive voices.
