The Acme Novelty Library

review 1: This issue of the ACME Novelty Library was particularly imaginative, heartbreaking, and beautiful. The introductory short was a spectacular sci-fi narrative about a doomed colonization of Mars, followed by another short of Ware's more typical subject matter. The illustrations are breathtaking, the characters are hilarious and ultra depressing. It's clear that this series is already genre defining and timeless. I can't stop thinking about the first short. Ware has a way, that's for sure.
review 2: Each time I feel I've read my favorite Chris Ware comic, I read a new one that's even better... For now, the Acme Novelty Library #19 is my all time favorite! Wonderful storytelling, a quirky (I always wanted to use that word) science fiction story inside the story of ... moreRusty Brown's awkward but strangely recognizable life makes for a very layered reading experience. Very exciting work from a storytelling genius! less
