By the Way

A single, landmark issue of raw, confessional comics from 1988, By the Way is the debut that launched Julie Doucet's legendary career in alternative comics. Published by Drawn & Quarterly, this one-shot introduced her signature messy, expressive linework and brutally honest, surreal slice-of-life storytelling. It matters as the first major work from one of the most influential and acclaimed cartoonists of the underground comix and indie comics scene.
