6 Comics With Incredibly Unique Art (That You Probably Haven't Read)

6. Sabrina

Sabrina follows the disappearance of a young woman named Sabrina Gallo. The comic is centred around Sabrina's sister, as well as her boyfriend Teddy, who goes to stay with his childhood friend, Calvin. The comic follows the psychological effect of Sabrina's disappearance - and, as it turns out, murder - on these characters, as we see Teddy's breakdown and Calvin's not-quite-outsider attitude towards the whole experience unfold over the course of the series.

Nick Drnaso's art for Sabrina is somehow both neutral and deeply emotional, with characters that invite the viewer into the world of the comic. The characters oftentimes say little, with entire pages being devoid of text at multiple points in the story. Despite this, their faces show so much of what is happening to them, the pain they feel and the horrors they have seen.

This is to say nothing of Drnaso's use of colour, drawing scenes in near total darkness, yet detailed enough for the reader to fully understand what is happening in each panel.

Drnaso creates not only a rich story with Sabrina, but a world that feels genuine with characters that feel unquestionably authentic.
