The Nobody

The Nobody is a graphic novel created by cartoonist Jeff Lemire. It was first published in a hardcover format by Vertigo Comics in July 2009. It is a retelling of the 1897 H.G. Wells novel The Invisible Man, recasting the bandaged stranger as a modern-day drifter. His presence in a small-town American fishing village creates a frenzy that unwraps and exposes the scarred underside to their own secrets. Lemire believed Wells' character was an ideal way to "explore themes of identity, rural life, community and paranoia". In a review for Oregon Live, Steve Duin said there was a "lot to like" about The Nobody, but that it was not as good as Lemire's previous work, Essex County. more »

Jittering hands
Taking the garbage out
He's just like the
Things that have no more use

Decaying food
Flies rub their palms
He's like the remains
Spat out the plastic bag

Hors D'usage

A triangle with
An exclamation mark
The warning is on his
Chest, foreskin, forehead

Nights of rest none,
Washed out pictures
Of brighter days
Washing down pills
Squirming lungs take
His breath away

Hors D'usage

One hue of blue
Draining hope from the sun
Eleven dimensions being
Compressed into one
Time ceases when
Panic can't be undone

My thought is me
That's why and can't stop
I exist because I think
And I can't stop
If I exist is because
I'm horrified
I pull myself from
The Nothingness
To which I aspire

Hors D'usage

He who fights monsters
Should be careful
Lest he thereby
Become a monster
And if thou gaze
Long into an abyss
The abyss will
Gaze into thee

- Dedicated to Jean-Paul Sartre and Friedrich Nietzsche
