$7.00

In a world stripped of words, a man drifts through the wreckage of memory, trauma, and identity—searching not for who he is, but why he survived.

Enlightenment is a black-and-white, wordless graphic novella that explores rebirth through grief, transformation through silence, and the haunting beauty of emotional unraveling.

A man emerges into a barren, surreal world—disoriented, alone, and followed by visions he can’t explain. As he journeys across desolate landscapes and through symbolic remnants of his past, he confronts the pain, guilt, and truth buried within him. With each step, he sheds layers of who he thought he was, descending deeper into a kind of inner afterlife.

Told entirely without dialogue, Enlightenment relies on atmosphere, visual metaphor, and emotional weight to guide the reader. It’s a poetic meditation on loss, the fragility of identity, and what it means to begin again.

For readers of The Fountain, Asterios Polyp, and anyone who believes stories don’t need words to cut deep.

STORY
 In this fast-paced 24 page one-shot psychological horror, we are thrown into the life of a depressed and suicidal man. Not knowing of his past or why he is in such a dire state of mind, we are shown a sequence of events that will have undeniable consequences on the man's life. We observe his descent into the depths of his mind where his demons reside and where every fiber of his being will be put to the test. He faces the inner turmoil between personal faith and self resentment. Although the events of his journey are tragic, the story depicts a strong and powerful message that leads the way toward enlightenment.
