The Complete Jack Survives
Jerry Moriarty · 2008 · 80 pages
This oversized, full-color edition, reprint of work in Art Spiegelman's Raw, 1984, gathers for the first time all of the Jack Survives strips and presents them in the way the author intended. Moriartys painted comics offer slice-of-life vignettes that express a fanciful, yet deadpan, take on the humor inherent in everyday moments. Since Jack Survives first appeared in Art Spiegelmans groundbreaking anthology RAW in the 80s, it has been lauded for Moriartys innovative use of the comics medium. This long-awaited deluxe volume gives these comics new life. Introduction by acclaimed cartoonist Chris Ware (Jimmy Corrigan)
