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.
I have the book of other people and then was a little annoyed that I was going to have to ‘try’ and buy the Virginia Review but I think you’re right, it’s worth waiting for the hardcover.
I also hear the Acme novelty 18.5 is out but I haven’t seen it yet…
