Dash Shaw, comic artist

You may not know his name - yet - but he's a prolific artist and comics creator poised to unleash several large projects into the medium. Shaw’s quiet and unassuming nature belies the raw and exposed persona of his work ... whether a story about a zombie romance or a flood caused by the tears of a distressed anthropomorphic banana. “I'm not like Crumb, who's constantly drawing on a napkin wherever he goes. I do figure drawings, but I spend more time thinking about comics, the design and everything, more than the actual hand-drawing time.” Alternative Comics just released his newest collection of stories, "The Mother's Mouth." ink, gouache, computer
