Zoe Thorogood, a rising star in indie comics, has already made an immense impact with just two graphic novels. With her deeply personal storytelling and raw, inventive art style, she’s redefining what graphic novels can do.

Our Top Zoe Thorogood Recommendations:

The Impending Blindness of Billie Scott
This debut graphic novel takes readers on a poignant journey of Billie, a painter facing impending blindness. Stripped of the thing she loves most, she embarks on a quest to rediscover art in a world she can no longer fully see. Thorogood’s exploration of identity, purpose, and the fragility of life is as beautiful as it is heartbreaking.

It's Lonely at the Centre of the Earth
Zoe's follow-up graphic novel is a raw, autobiographical exploration of success, isolation, and the pressures of breaking into the comics world. With sharp humor and daring experimentation, she invites readers to witness both the highs and the lows of her journey - blurring the line between the artist’s life and their work in a deeply relatable way.
