Acme Novelty Datebook Volume One by Chris Ware, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters

Acclaimed cartoonist Chris Ware reveals the outtakes of his genius in these intimate, imaginative and whimsical sketches collected from the years during which he completed his award-winning graphic novel, Jimmy Corrigan: The Smartest Kid on Earth. This book is as much a companion volume to Jimmy Corrigan-one of the great crossover success stories-as a tremendous art collection from one of North America's most interesting and popular graphic artists. Chris Ware has a passion for drawing that is surprisingly wide-ranging in style and subject. This book surprises the reader on every page with its sense of spontaneous vision. Architectural drawings and interplanetary robot comics collide with cruelly doodled human figures and quietly troubling studies of still life. The Acme Novelty Datebook is a must for people with a passion for modern design and old-fashioned style. | Acme Novelty Datebook Volume One by Chris Ware, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
