$3.50

Description

2003 Ignatz Award Winner: Outstanding Comic

2003 Harvey Award Winner: Best New Series

2003 Harvey Award Winner: Best New Talent

2002 Eisner Award Nominee

Nick Bertozzi, the exciting, inventive New York cartoonist best known for his Ignatz-Award winning “map-book” Boswash and 2001’s outstanding graphic novel The Masochists which garnered him a 2002 Eisner Award nomination, now unleashes his first ongoing series — and it’s his most amazing work yet! Bertozzi’s work on Rubber Necker has won him the 2003 Ignatz Award for “Outstanding Comic”, and two 2003 Harvey Awards for “Best New Series” and “Best New Talent”. Bertozzi’s bag of tricks is huge — one minute he’s laying his characters’ souls bare with his bold, expressive cartooning, the next he’s doubling you over with a bit of perfect streetwise dialogue, the next he’s teasing your brain with an ingenious twist on the workings of the comics page. At the heart of each issue of Rubber Necker will be a new chapter of “Drop Ceiling”, the intense, hilariously seedy tale of a young man facing ejection from the family business, and his quest for the fateful box left him by his late father.

In this first issue, “Drop Ceiling” is joined by two self-contained stories ø one, a gleeful satire on the genre of the “Ivy League Professor” novel, and another exploring a surreal downtown club-scene in which everyone talks in pictograms. Get on board and get wrapped up in the world of one of America’s most exciting young cartoonists!
