illustrated books
illustrated books (graphic novels, comic books - call them what you will)....
a recent purchase: Chris Ware's Building Stories reminded me how amazingly intricate and clever some of these illustrated books are.
This publication comes in a box containing several items - everything links up. Such fine, clever and intricate drawing... and storylines. A treat.
an earlier work by the same author/illustrator:
Jimmy Corrigan: The Smartest Kid on Earth was my first introduction to Chris Ware's work
His work appears weekly in The Guardian newspaper (UK)
...other favourites of mine:
Marjane Satrapi - Persepolis |
Joe Sacco |
Richard McGuire |
Craig R. Thompson |
David Mazzucchelli |
