Rusty Brown

Chris Ware's Rusty Brown (Pantheon, 2019–present) is a singular, ongoing graphic novel from the acclaimed cartoonist, known for his meticulous, emotionally resonant storytelling. Centered on the interconnected lives of a group of characters in and around a Nebraska school, the series explores themes of loneliness, memory, and the passage of time with Ware's signature formal inventiveness and deep humanism. Though only one volume has been released so far, it stands as a major work from one of the medium's most celebrated artists.
