Behind the Scenes of The Cancel Haus

The Cancel Haus didn’t appear out of thin air. It’s the result of hundreds of tiny decisions: where a line should tremble, where a colour should bruise, where a sentence should land like a quiet threat.

Today’s spotlight is on the engine room of THE CANCEL HAUS — the part readers never see. Hroge has built The Cancel Haus alone — no committees, no compromises.

• Dozens of thumbnail experiments

• Pages rewritten until the rhythm clicked

• Colour palettes designed to shift mood panel by panel

• Lettering choices that guide the eye like a whispered suggestion

• A storyboard that mutated as the story deepened

This is the part of comics that can’t be automated or delegated.

It’s the part that takes time — and gives the work its pulse.

If you’re the kind of reader who loves seeing how a story is constructed, Issue 11 is a masterclass in controlled chaos.

“Reading this is serious business but I was enthralled… a fascinating story that had me hooked from page one.

The art is solid and purposeful… calm colours and beeeeeeautiful lettering… a synergistic flow that’s hard to put down.”

— Mike from Mike’s Comics, Bristol

Just One Week Left to Back THE CANCEL HAUS

We’re deep into the campaign — and the Haus is buzzing.

If you’ve been watching from the sidelines, now’s the moment to jump in.

THE CANCEL HAUS is a critically acclaimed, very English, darkly comic thriller — and there’s just one week left to pledge on Kickstarter.

Meet Adam Warmbath.

Wealthy, perceptive, politically unaligned… and he knows who’s harming the children.

Stopping them is one mission.

Surviving the chaos on his own doorstep is another:

• Greedy builders

• A visitor with a hungry gun

• Public exposure of his daughter’s privacy

This is storytelling with bite — darkly humorous, surreal, and fiercely original.

A Graphic Novel You Can Feel Before You Even Read It

36 pages. Full colour. Litho printed.

One creator. Fifteen years.

Every panel drawn, coloured, lettered, and designed in‑haus.

The Cancel Haus is a love letter to independent publishing in its purest form — uncompromised, handcrafted, and proudly strange.

Now funding on Kickstarter, THE CANCEL HAUS is a 15‑part graphic‑novel epic blending British humour, European visual flair, and a satirical edge unlike anything else in comics today.

“Firstly — and this matters — it’s beautifully printed on quality paper stock that smells incredible. (Yes, this is for the people who sniff paper in art shops and stroke the textures of drawing pads. You’re among friends.) Each issue contains 24 pages of full‑colour artwork, plus additional pages of quotations, film lists, and music playlists compiled by Hroge and mysterious design collaborator Esther. These aren’t throwaway extras — they act as subtle indicators of influence and mood, pulling the whole thing into a cohesive, sophisticated design package. It’s the kind of detail that tells you serious thought has gone into building a world for the reader to enter. In its modest way, it echoes the conceptual ambition of the original Watchmen issues — each one a standalone design object — or the way Vaughan Oliver shaped entire atmospheres for 4AD albums.” Paul Ashley Brown

Back‑issue bundles available.

Bonus material you can’t get digitally.

Signed & wax‑sealed editions for collectors.

This is a book built to last.

If you care about design, print, and fiercely independent art — this one’s for you.

A quick flip through Issue 10 of THE CANCEL HAUS.

Dark comedy. Occult references. Peculiarly English humour.

A bande‑dessinée fever dream built by one creator.

Issue 10 is ready.

After 15 years of obsessive work by just one man, The Cancel Haus is finally reaching the readers it was made for.

If you haven’t taken a look yet, now’s the perfect moment. See if this surreal, fiercely original series might become — as one reader put it — your “next new obsession.”

“When you finish with the 15 issues I think this is going to be something to behold…

There’s a rhythm to the storytelling that is unique… It’s a beautiful book, it’s something special.” — Don Moore

‘Hroge is doing something refreshing, daring and ambitious here, very much on his own terms, and says he considers this “…a spiritual piece of art… albeit with a sense of mischief.” Multiple narratives, casts and locations shift from page to page, and there’s a hint of Moebius here. Hroge’s captions are playful with language and allusions, running away with his wry, witty sentences, flowing with ellipses from caption to caption (not sure I’ve seen this done before quite like this), playing with the gaps between what is written and what is drawn… a MASTERWORK IN THE MAKING.’ Paul Gravett

Created entirely by one artist over 15 years, THE CANCEL HAUS blends literary depth, visual flair, and a rebellious spirit. It’s been called “a masterwork in the making” and “a seminal moment in graphic novels.”

This is graphic fiction for the fearless. Don’t miss your chance to be part of it.

‘As well as the 24 pages of full colour artwork per issue, there are additional pages featuring quotations, lists of films and music playlists compiled by Hroge and mysterious design collaborator Esther, that act as almost supplementary indicators of influences and mood, and pull the whole thing into a very simple yet sophisticated overall design package, which suggest some serious proper thought has gone into creating a whole world for the reader to enter. It’s the small details like this that impress me; in its modest way it’s similar thinking to how each issue of the original Watchmen was a conceptual piece in its own right while being part of a bigger whole. Or the way Vaughn Oliver might design an album for 4AD.’ Paul Ashley Brown – Comics creator
