More Artists of Note
Some of these cartoonists appeared in the assignment slides but are worth mentioning again!
Ryan Andrews: A fantastic silent comic meant to be viewed on the scroll rather than in spreads.

Jim Woodring: Extremely rad, super weird comics - excuse the late 90's web design.

Chris Ware: A master of American comics, Ware employs silence often in his visually dense spreads. Look at "Building Stories" available in the library.
