Surviving Saskatoon

David Collier's Surviving Saskatoon is a single-issue comic from Drawn & Quarterly, published in 2000, that offers a quietly observational slice-of-life documentary. Known for his detailed, ink-washed art and understated storytelling, Collier turns his eye to the people and places of a Canadian prairie city, capturing a sense of place with warmth and specificity. It stands as a modest but resonant example of the alt-comics tradition, where the everyday is rendered with the weight of history.
