Listerine Word Balloons

From adhunt come these ads for breath freshener Listerine. Another example of how word balloons are a mainstay in visual language when it comes to express speech.

The Virginia Quarterly Review announces that, starting from their Winter 2008 issue, Chris Ware will elaborate on this Jordan W. Lint story, chronicling the life of an American teenager up until age 21 (which sounds like typical Ware subject matter to me). This story is a continuation of Ware’s contribution to Zadie Smith’s The Book Of Other People, blogged about earlier.
25 bucks isn’t a lot for a yearly subscription, I think, but I’d rather wait for this story to be published in one of Ware’s lavish hardcovers.

This comic reminds me of the art of Belgian cartoonist Renaat Demoen, but I don’t think they’re related.
