Zen Comics

A charmingly esoteric single-issue oddity from Tuttle Publishing, Zen Comics (1974) pairs minimalist, ink-wash illustrations by Ioanna Salajan with the playful, paradoxical philosophy of Zen Buddhism. Rather than a conventional narrative, the book presents a series of visual koans and gentle, humorous anecdotes that invite quiet contemplation. It stands as a unique, meditative artifact of the 1970s counterculture's fascination with Eastern thought, offering a serene pause rather than a superheroic punch.
