Volume 1 - 1st printing. "1986-1995!" By Chris Ware.

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.

His novel not only won the Manchester Guardian First Novel prize in 2001 but it has sold over 100,000 copies. This book is as much a companion volume to Jimmy Corrigan - one of the great crossover success stories - as a tremendous art collection from of one of America's most interesting and popular graphic artists.

Hardcover, PC/PB&W.

 

Volume 2 - 1st printing. "1995-2002!" By Chris Ware.

Working directly in pen and ink, watercolor, and white-out whenever he makes a mistake, Ware has cannily edited out all legally sensitive and personally incriminating material from his private journals, carefully recomposing each page to simulate the appearance of an ordered mind and established aesthetic directive.

Included are Ware's frustrated doodles for his book covers, angry personal assaults on friends, and half-finished comic strips, as well as his now-beloved drawings of the generally miserable inhabitants of the city of Chicago.

Hardcover, PC/PB&W.
