"A graphic novel by Will Eisner about a young man who dreams of creating comic books in the 1930s."
""In this new graphic novella, Will Eisner explores the hopes and dreams of a young man who desires to be a cartoonist. It takes place during the depressed economic time of the mid-1930s. As the young man nourishes his vision of the future, he discovers the newly created field of comic books. As he gains a foothold in the new industry, the young man learns and grows along with it. The people he meets, his success, his failures, his persistence of vision are all documented here. This is the story about businessmen and artists, pragmatists and dreamers, by a man who was indeed there at the beginning of comic books, and is recognized worldwide today as a master of the medium."--Jacket."
