The best thing about wordless comics (especially bandes dessinees and mangas) is that they can be easily accessible to anyone anywhere, regardless of language or culture. All of Thomas Ott's work was originally published in Europe, and are just recently getting imported to the US by Fantagraphics, but I don't reckon purchasing any of the foreign editions would make them any harder to understand. They are pure sequential art without any dialogue to clutter up the panels.
This one is about a hitman and a magician, with a curiously magical ending.
