The Acme Novelty Library #11

4.6/5 ( ratings)

Acme Novelty Library #11 continues the Harvey Award-winning Jimmy Corrigan epic, begun in Acme #5. This issue centers around the 1890s Chicago era and the bleak circumstances surrounding the death of Jimmy Senior's grandmother. Other "high points" include: Jimmy eats sugar out of the jar, only to discover a lot of dead flies buried in the treat; a special viewing of an exciting slide show of "The Great Fire" that burned down Chicago; some homeless men yell at Jimmy and scare him away; plus many more fun surprises! The most haunting and bizarre issue yet in the critically-acclaimed series.

"...a queasy, psychological time trip down the corridors of your guiltier regrets." – Spin
