Bumf

Joe Sacco, celebrated for his journalistic comics, turns his unflinching eye inward with Bumf (2016–present, Edition Moderne). This single-issue series, a departure from his war-reportage work, offers a raw, satirical, and deeply personal exploration of contemporary society and the artist's own psyche. It matters as a potent reminder of Sacco's range, proving his distinctive, detailed linework and critical perspective are just as sharp when trained on the absurdities of everyday life.
