"Rusty Brown" is a fully interactive, full-color articulation of the time-space interrelationships of six complete consciousnesses on a single midwestern American day and the tiny piece of human grit about which they involuntarily orbit. A sprawling, special snowflake accumulation of the biggest themes and the smallest moments of life, "Rusty Brown" literately and literally aims at nothing less than the coalescence of one half of all of existence into a single museum-quality picture story, expertly arranged to present the most convincingly ineffable and empathetic illusion of experience for both life-curious readers and traditional fans of standard reality. From childhood to old age, no frozen plotline is left unthawed in the entangled stories of a child who awakens without superpowers, a teen who matures into a paternal despot, a father who stores his emotional regrets on the surface of Mars and a late-middle-aged woman who seeks the love of only one other person on planet Earth.… (plus d'informations)

A dense work which really deserves the 'graphic novel' moniker. It focuses on the lives of several lonely teachers and students at a small school in Omaha, Nebraska. Ware uses elaborate panel construction to show multifaceted stories. The one about school bully and slacker Jordan Lint showed his entire life. Other stories tackle a painfully shy man whose first sexual experience is shaped by a rather crazy woman, and a teacher who endures regular racism at the school. Just like a modern novel, the book ends(?) ambiguously. I felt it dived quite deeply into its protagonists. I was annoyed by the regular use of very small text, though I didn't mind the micro-panels.

A great book to kill time with Chris Ware's consistent trademark style of characters penned with jellybean heads and button noses, set in a very realistic (almost boring) everyday situations. This book was particularly fun inasmuch as one of the characters was named "Chris", an artist-teacher, portrayed as an unattractive bachelor, hanging out with his students. At the end of the book is the story of another teacher reunited with her long lost child (now a grown woman), a particularly heartfelt depiction.
Overall I don't think the book was so much about storytelling as it was about using graphics to portray everyday life, which is extremely well done. ( )

My least favorite of Ware's books until the long concluding Joanne Cole story, which was surprising and moving and nudged it past 3.5 stars. ( )

Everybody is raving about this book, calling it a masterwork and amazing ect. ect. ect. So of course I had to read it and find out for myself.

And... I don't get it :( I appreciate the effort that clearly went into it, and the stylistic changes, and the ambition. But the order of the panels is not intuitive, the text is so small at times as to be illegible (and I'm young!), and some of the characters seemed unnecessary (the eponymous Rusty Brown, Chalky White, and his sister). And at 356 pages, it's only half the story.

I did love "The Seeing-Eye Dogs of Mars," though - that's something I'd read for fun on it's own. (I found it very interesting that the main character was also named Rusty - was this tongue-in-cheek on Ware's part? Or was his father so in love with the name he gave it to his son?) ( )

My fourth 5 star in a row, there must be something in the water. The Lint/Cole sections that close the book off in particular are superlative. ( )
