Strips: The Special Edition

Chuck Austen brings his distinctive linework to this White Buffaloe Press series, which collects and reframes a selection of newspaper comic strips in a special-edition comic format. Launched in 1997, the series ran for two issues, offering a curated look at the art of the daily strip through Austen's artistic lens. It stands as a brief but focused tribute to the craft of sequential storytelling from the newspaper page to the comic book shelf.
