Chronicles of Hate is a text-less graphic novel due out tomorrow in the US (9-24-2014). Anyone else eyeing this? It looks great.

Charles (kainja) | 430 comments Text-less gives me pause actually. I kinda like text. Part of the reason I seldom read comics. I prefer the words over the images.

I agree. However the art seems bold enough that it seems a story can be told after all. That is a lot of weight for the art to carry though.

Phil Emery | 66 comments Thanks for the headsup on this. I might well go for it - looks very much in my line and I'll certainly be interested in it from a technical point-of-view. (I don't think it's entirely textless, from the pages I've seen - but creative audacity should always be rewarded:-)

I enjoyed this one. Not sure when Vol#2 is due, but I'll be getting that too.

I haven't been able to get the money together to buy this, but have requested it from my local library - looking forward to seeing it soon.
