The Arrival is a silent graphic novel about a man who leaves his family behind, to go and find work in a distant city to provide a better life for them. As he tries to adapt to life in this strange new city he meets others people and learns their stories. It's a beautiful book and this is the part which stand out to me the most. Also I should probably mention I previously uploaded these scans to my Tumblr.


In this section an old man he meet is telling him his story

It's a great graphic novel, but the pic outside the cut is massive. Could you shrink it? The ones under the cut are fine.

I checked this out at the library years and years ago, was absolutely stunned by how poignant every single panel was. Not a line wasted, and yet not a thing left unsaid.

One of my all time favourite graphic stories ever. Poignant, beautiful, unique and universal at the same time...

Utterly breathtaking.

I remember a friend I obtained a copy of this for as a present (It's a very handy gift to explain comics to people who don't necessarily know that many comics) and they described it as "a graphic poem" and I think that describes it perfecrkt,
