Mcsweeny's

[monkeysblood]

my mum got me the Mcsweeny's Quarterly review number 13 for christmas. i've not encountered the publication before but this issue is edited by chris ware of Acme Novelty Library and Jimmy Corrigan fame. it's all comics inside. and wrapped in comics with little comics stuffed in the dust jacket. needless to say if yr into comics 'n that you might wanna check it out. and if you haven't seen any of chris wares work i advise you to investigate.

In the Shadow of No Towers

also full of comix comix comix, lots of references and reprints of classics,

produced on thick pages like kids books,
some sort of comix catharsis for spiegelman, who is doing agonising soulsearching, as usual.
