Overview
La obra maestra de Richard McGuire vuelve su formato original, con postfacio de Chris Ware y las primeras páginas originales publicadas. La edición imprescindible.
En 1989, Richard McGuire publicó en la revista RAW una historieta de seis páginas en blanco y negro titulada Aquí, en la que narraba la historia del rincón de una habitación y de todo lo ocurrido en ese pequeño espacio a lo largo de miles de años. Aquellas páginas se convirtieron en algunas de las más transformadoras, influyentes y estudiadas del medio. Aquí es la materialización de una visión pionera en el mundo del cómic, a cargo de uno de sus más grandes innovadores autores: Richard McGuire.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
From one of the great comic innovators, the long-awaited fulfillment of a pioneering comic vision: the story of a corner of a room and of the events that have occurred in that space over the course of hundreds of thousands of years.
“A book like this comes along once a decade, if not a century…. I guarantee that you’ll remember exactly where you are, or were, when you first read it.” —Chris Ware, The Guardian
"In Here McGuire has introduced a third dimension to the flat page. He can poke holes in the space-time continuum simply by imposing frames that act as transtemporal windows into the larger frame that stands for the provisional now. Here is the comic-book equivalent of a scientific breakthrough. It is also a lovely evocation of the spirit of place, a family drama under the gaze of eternity and a ghost story in which all of us are enlisted to haunt and be haunted in turn.” —The New York Times Book Review
