deadpan dogs
Low Moon ~ Jason
Hardcover: 216 pages ISBN-10: 1606991558 ISBN-13: 978-1606991558
The author, known simply as Jason, is an acclaimed graphic novelist based in Norway. This book contains five stories and takes its name from one of them, my favorite, a chess western. His characters are all hapless dog-faced creations grappling with desire and melancholy. The stories are interspersed with deadpan wit and bits of slapstick humor. It's very cool and apparently Jason has a rabid following. Last year the title piece was serialized in the New York Times Sunday Magazine "Funny Pages" section. Count me in as another fan.
