Cravan

In 2005, Dark Horse published a single-issue biography of the legendary poet and boxer Arthur Cravan, written by Mike Richardson and illustrated by Rick Geary. Geary's meticulous, crosshatched period art brings the artist's brief, chaotic life to the page, chronicling his Dadaist provocations and mysterious disappearance. This one-shot stands as a concise, elegantly drawn portrait of a fascinating, forgotten figure from the early 20th-century avant-garde.
