- Gods'_Man abstract "Gods' Man is a wordless novel by American artist Lynd Ward (1905–1985) first published in 1929. In 139 captionless woodblock prints it tells the Faustian story of an artist who signs away his soul for a magic paintbrush. Gods' Man was the first American wordless novel, and is seen as a precursor of, and influence on, the development of the graphic novel.Ward first read a wordless novel, Frans Masereel's The Sun (1919), while studying art in Germany in 1926. After returning to the United States in 1927, he established a career for himself as an illustrator. He found Otto Nückel's wordless novel Destiny (1926) in New York City in 1929, and was inspired to create a wordless novel of his own. Gods' Man appeared a week before the Wall Street Crash of 1929; sales nevertheless were strong, and the book remains the best-selling American wordless novel. Its success inspired other Americans to experiment with the medium, including cartoonist Milt Gross, who parodied Gods' Man in He Done Her Wrong (1930). In the 1970s, Ward's example inspired cartoonists Art Spiegelman and Will Eisner to create their first graphic novels.".
