Narrative Corpse

Have you ever tried to write a chain story with a bunch of friends? Well when a group of 69 underground comixs artists decided to start their own chain-story, it blossomed in to a 5 year long project with each artist contributing only 3 panels. Edited by Art Spiegelman (Maus), and including creators such as R. Crumb, Will Eisner, and Los Bros Hernandez, it is a truly interesting read.

The story, while only slightly rational, follows the confusing adventures of Corpsey, a stick figure. A lot of work has been put into the character design. Totally 

Grand philosophical statements right there

And the Spirit makes a guest appearance 

Cross-dressing. Always a good idea 


Narrative Corpse, due to it's underground comixs nature, is not for kids, and it is not readily available. You could order it online, or, if you are in the Lehigh Valley, you can get it from the Moravian Reeve Library.

See you next time
