First Edition
Soft cover. Condition: New. No Jacket. 1st Edition. New Haven: Yale University Press, 2004. First Edition. First Printing. New. Softbound, paperback original, large illustrated wraps, French flaps. The true first edition; there was no hardcover edition. New, a pristine unread copy. Ware is the author of Jimmy Corrigan: The Smartest Kid on Earth. Raeburn is editor of the fanzine The Imp. Ware is first and foremost an insanely adept pillager of early 20th century advertising and comics forms; but it's as a story-teller that Ware is known and celebrated. Raeburn emphasizes Ware's "emotional" use of color and form and decries an art museum's placement of a single page of comic art taken from a larger work on its walls as tantamount to "cutting a paragraph from a short story and framing it." 0.0.
