Bumf

Joe Sacco, renowned for his journalistic comics, turns his incisive eye inward with Bumf, a venomous and absurdly funny series from Fantagraphics that launched in 2014. Blending autobiographical confession with savage political satire, Sacco unleashes a torrent of rage against power, privilege, and the state of the world, all rendered in his unmistakably dense, crosshatched style. Though only a single issue has appeared, it stands as a potent, unhinged counterpoint to his more celebrated long-form reportage.
