Description

Frank is, as everyone knows, Jim Woodringâe(tm)s best-selling cartoon character. Jim, on the other hand, is Woodringâe(tm)s cartoon alter ego, the fictional doppelganger who has for 30 years inhabited Woodringâe(tm)s alternate universe where shifting, phantasmagoric landscapes, abrupt, hallucinatory visual revelations, and unexpected eruptions of uninhibited verbal self-flagellation are commonplace. Jim is a mind-bending collection of all of Woodringâe(tm)s best non-Frank creative work âe" comics stories, prose stories, drawings, and paintings, with a new introduction and afterword by the man himself. Abounding in metaphors if you choose to see them and naked self-disclosure if you donâe(tm)t, this volume of comics, prose, and images âe"collected here for the first time and including an all-new 24-page storyâe" is a bounty of Woodringâe(tm)s inspired artistry.
