Because Jeff Lemire’s new Vertigo comic book, The Nobody, was released on July 8th and because my posts that were strictly video, no text, were lost during the switch, I’m reposting this.
It’s a short conversation we had about his upcoming work, Sweet Tooth, while at TCAF.
You can buy The Nobody at comic book stores.
Although Ryan Oakley began his career as a simple rake (drunk) he has since become Toronto’s most renowned flaneur (no car) and notorious dandy (overdresses). A misanthropic composer of psycho-geographical fictions (sci-fi), he is also a server of food, a tender of bar and a washer of dishes. While performing all these functions with efficiency and elegance (disdain and malice), he somehow finds the time to publicly criticize friends, strangers and cultural crap.
