RUSTY BROWN
CHRIS WARE
Rusty Brown collects and presents the last 15 years of cartooning master Chris Ware’s deep, heartbreaking examination of a single day in the life at a school in Nebraska. Through themes of loneliness, vulnerability, and anxiety, Ware offers a glimpse of the human condition that is at once both profoundly intimate and, at the same time, universal.
Chris Ware is a master of comics. Rusty Brown is exhibit A in the argument placing him among the pantheon of our most important living artists in any medium. This work is a must read, both for fans of the cartooning medium looking to experience comics at its highest level of craft and for newcomers alike as an example of what the artform has to offer.
