The Wrestler

Fantagraphics / · english

John Kenn Mortensen’s mordant, black-and-white inked images have taken you to The Nightmare Factory, The Bestiary, and given you Night Terrors. Now, in the internationally bestselling visual artist’s first available graphic novel, you’re going to fight like hell! Freestyle wrestler The Sledgehammer has never met defeat, not at the hands of Painkiller, Handsome Jens, Fezzik the Giant or the Angel of Death. But over the course of 80 pages, Danish illustrator John Kenn Mortensen’s surreal black and white graphic novel will take Sledgehammer to the limits of reality, to show that he’s motivated by far more than hubris—it’s also love.
