Jimmy Corrigan: The Smartest Kid on Earth

0224063979

For five years Chris Ware has been drawing amazingly innovative 'comic strips' about a character called Jimmy Corrigan - a boy with the face of a disappointed old man. Jimmy Corrigan has rightly been hailed as the greatest comic/graphic novel ever to be published and is now available for the first time in paperback. ‘Jimmy Corrigan is certainly the greatest thing in strip cartoons since Krazy Kat and Little Nemo.'Raymond Briggs 'Ware is the most versatile and innovative artist the medium has known-arguably the greatest achievement of the form ever'Dave Eggers, New York Times Book Review
