How come no one told me? Saul Steinberg is a NINJA! How could i have missed this? Some people may consider this to be a suite of drawings, but I think that this is an honest-to-god graphic novel in a way that few conventional comics can lay claim to. There is a lovely abstract dialogue that goes on between each page. The variety of media, the elegance of the penwork, this is some for real awesome shit.

Something Dwight Eisenhower and Andy Warhol could both enjoy.

Saul Steinberg. If he hadn't existed, no one would know how to invent him. Artist nonpareil.
