Painter and cartoonist Tom Neely's graphic novel, The Blot, is like a sad song that breaks your heart while reminding you of life's beauty. The Blot follows a nameless everyman who, while dealing with the fallout from a doomed relationship, is stalked by a mysterious black splotch. As the story unfolds, this shape-shifting blot appears as a harmless cloud of ink, a faceless demon, a source of strength, and an inescapable darkness, testing our character anew with each metamorphosis.
Tom Neely's mastery of the form is evident from the first pages. He wears his influences on his sleeve: Popeye, silent cinema, and abstract art all meld into satisfying and unique personal expression. Full of mystery, psychological depth, beauty, and genuine terror, The Blot took independent comics by storm in the 2000s. The Blot's 20th anniversary edition brings this Ignatz Award-winning silent graphic novel to a new audience.
