This week, Jeff Lemire's new graphic novel The Nobody arrived and is his first work with Vertigo. Lemire popped up almost out of nowhere with his excellent Essex Country graphic novel trilogy that is going to be collected into one big volume this August by Top Shelf.
The Nobody is one of those books that the less said the better and I can't think of anything to say about it's content (other than it's mystery of sorts) without ruining the reader experience. So this entry just exists as a shout out for The Nobody and anyone who's seen Jeff Lemire's comic work will also enjoy this book. Lemire has a new Vertigo series debuting within a couple of months called Sweet Tooth that I'm sure will also be a title to keep your eyes peeled for as Lemire is a fairly new and upcoming comic artist with a unique voice.
