1st printing. Story and art by Karl Stevens. "Whatever" is a remarkable collection of humorous and beautifully drawn short stories by Ignatz nominated and Xeric award winning artist Karl Stevens. Set in the world of young artists, dreamers, drinkers, layabouts, and dime-store deep thinkers of bohemian Allston, Massachusetts, the strips - originally published in The Phoenix, Boston's leading alternative weekly - are revealing snapshots of real-life urban America at the dawn of the 21st century. Stevens's clear eye and skillful inkwork render these pictures of local beauty and joyful squalor into a documentary of the way we live and love. In addition to The Phoenix strips, Whatever features ten exquisite color pieces expertly rendered in watercolor. Softcover, 5 1/2-in. x 7 1/2-in., 128 pages, PC/PB&W. Cover price $9.95.
