About this title

Synopsis

“Chackowicz’s great trick is making us think that he has merely drawn us comics and cartoons both surreal and laugh-out-loud hilarious, but at a closer glance we can see that he has also crafted honest-to-god poems―lyrical works of poignancy and depth. His art is unexpectedly wistful, and warm-heartedly wise.” ―Jonathan Goldstein (Heavyweight, This American Life, WireTap)

True to form, Nothing to See Here’s one-page gags convey narrative devices that take fans to strange places that exist well beyond joke territory.
