New Prints by Chris Ware and Charles Burns

Our friends over at OMG recently let Hi-Fructose know that in-house favorites Chris Ware(Acme Novelty Library, Quimby the Mouse, Jimmy Corrigan) and CharlesBurns (Black Hole) have just released a couple new prints through Dutchpublisher Griffioen/Grafiek. You may remember the extensive essay on Ware by Mikl-Em in Hi-FructoseVol. 3 in which Mikl wrote: "His visual storytelling comes across as aroll of freeze frames. Ware is able to decelerate even the stillnes ofa staic medium, to a slo motion of itself, a flattened flib book thatstretches time across space and makes us fel the humanit of everyinstant represented." View the other Ware print as well as therelease by Burns after the jump.
