Chicago

By Glenn Head

From Harvey- and Eisner-nominated cartoonist and editor Glenn Head comes Chicago, the hilarious and harrowing tale of a nineteen-year-old virgin who drops out of everything and into the unknown. Abandoning suburbia for art school and then the gritty streets, young Glenn finds himself fending off predators and fighting depression. A visit to Playboy offers entr?e into the world of underground comix and R. Crumb, but it's a chance encounter with Muhammad Ali that allows young Glenn to prove his mettle. Like Scorsese circa Mean Streets crossed with revealing autobiography like Jim Carroll's The Basketball Diaries, Chicago is an unforgettable tale of losing one's mind, finding one's identity, and discovering love where it's least expected.
