Description

Jimmy Corrigan: The Smartest Kid on Earth p. 03

What can I say? My words cannot do this piece any justice. A perfect page that exemplifies the genius of Chris Ware. His ability to control time, relay expression and feeling is unparalleled.

An historic page, in my view, that is the perfect start to a groundbreaking work. It is truly a one and done example, though I hope to have the opportunity to add more from this genius in the future.
