Description
I SPENT THIS YEARS COMICCON ON THE PHONE MOST OF THE TIME SEALING THE DEAL FOR THIS BEAUTY :) IT WAS FIRST PUBLISHED IN THE DAILY TEXAN (CHRIS'S SCHOOL PAPER) THEN IN ACME NOVELTY LIBRARY IN 1994,AND FINALLY ACME NOVELTY LIBRARY QUIMBY HARDCOVER IN 2003. THIS PAGE HAS A BIT MORE VISUAL DEPTH THAN MOST OF WARE'S WORK, I THINK THAT MAKES IT RATHER UNIQUE. IT ALSO HAS THE QUALITY OF AN EARLY SILENT FILM, THIS IS ALL VISUAL STORYTELLING. THIS IS A NICE COMPLEMENT TO MY OTHER WARE WHICH IS REALLY ABOUT WARE'S WRITING.

Wow, there's so much cool detail and things going, I love it! Now I see why you were ignoring me at SDCC and spending so much time on your phone. Huge score. Congrats!

You were like one of those Millennials obcessed with their phones and not the real world...but now I get it after seeing the piece. :) And glad I told you to "get it or you'll regret it."
