New American Splendor Anthology

In this classic collection of comics that inspired the movie American Splendor, Harvey Pekar chronicles his own life in a series of often mundane yet touching and funny stories, illustrated by a variety of artists.  Despite the ordinary happenings he recounts, his eye for the frustrations and minutiae of workday, his insight into personal relationships, his wry humor and the very realism that leads him to choose everyday scenarios make the comics engaging new classics.
