For almost two decades, Julia Wertz has been documenting her life's most intimate, absurd, and amusing moments through a whimsical and hilarious diary comic book called The Fart Party. Wertz retells childhood antics that end in scars and swears. She tracks, in real-time, her young adulthood as she forgot her college graduation, traveled cross country via train, and drank her way through a harsh break-up.After receiving much acclaim (and controversy), The Fart Party became a series of self-published mini-comics, eventually collected into two volumes, published by Atomic Books. Long out of print, Museum of Mistakes collects anything and everything that is The Fart Party. PLUS: numerous pages of Julia's early comic work, unpublished and previously uncollected comics, short stories, illustrations, process pages, hate mail, sketchbook pages, tear stains, and more.This massive tome begs the question, "what is a Fart Party?" And the answer is... you'll have to read to find out!… (plus d'informations)
A massive collection of most of Julia Wertz's Fart Party material. I read the first two volumes a decade ago, but I thought it a good idea to revisit them in this handy chunk of book before diving into Wertz's new graphic memoir, Impossible People. Everything is still felt fresh and funny with the exception of some insensitive language which Wertz apologizes for up front. I appreciate that she didn't edit out the offensive stuff though, giving us a warts and all look at her early work.
I'm often put off by books that center around a person with a substance abuse problem, but somehow Wertz's cartoon avatar stays adorable despite her drinking. The bathroom humor and her introverted personality kept me hooked as she wandered around California and made her way to New York City. It's sort of fun to track her growing popularity as a creator as more and more indy cartoonists start making cameo appearances in her strips, hanging out and working with her.
It took me nearly a week to get through this brick, but it was time well spent.
