The Comics Journal #165

In "Chris Ware in 'From Here to There'," a rare solo effort by S. A. King, the story unfolds as a sharp, self-aware commentary on animation production, framed around a fictionalized moment where Matt Groening pitches a bold idea to Fox executives. With all art, writing, inking, and lettering by King, the piece blends dry wit with the quiet precision of its creator’s hand, capturing a moment of creative friction in the industry. The cover, a collaborative effort by Matt Wagner and Tom Tomorrow, complements the story’s satirical edge with its layered, stylized design.
