"Fine, clean and crisp scarce second printing of this amazing graphic novel and literary phenomena. SIGNED and dated artistically in white ink by Chris Ware on the first black page of the starry sky; signed C. Ware 2005 A.D.The second edition designation has been artfully obfuscated in the interior of the book; but it is there , and you will find it. Beautiful oblong blue book with pictorial spine titles in black and a lighter blue. The tiny coloured drawing in the center is of Superman carrying Jimmy. The Pictorial Language""of the front pastedown and endpaper contain many small drawings and much language and GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS.The rear pastedown and endpaper are printed in a muted green and black containing the CORRIGENDA, drawings; including a crutch, explanations, and definitions.The coloured cartoon-panel dust jacket originally purchased with light wear at spine-ends as is prevalent with this title, it is a marvel of many complex folds and pictures with additional language. The book is a series of many differently-sized panels both intricate and elegant telling a sad and moving story or stories. Jimmy does not look like a very happy guy.This is not only a stunningly original work of art but it is also extraordinarily executed. Winner of the London Guardian's Fiction Award 2001."""
