Commentaire

Chris Ware started Rusty Brown the week after he finished Jimmy Corrigan but he already used the characters of Rusty Brown and Chalky White in this page.
"The week after I finished the last page of Jimmy Corrigan I immediately started a new long story based on characters who had originated as parodies, but whom now I wanted to humanize… amidst a setting of memories of my Omaha childhood and Nebraska upbringing." (Chris Ware, Monograph)

This page also features a Chris Ware cameo...

First published in the weekly newspaper Newcity on the 19 of March 1998.
Published in ACME Novelty Library 10 (1998).
Reprinted in The Acme Novelty Library Annual Report to Shareholders (2005).
