Will Eisner

City People Notebook

One of four extraordinary graphic novels celebrating the Big Apple, from the master of American comics art.

“Will Eisner is a national treasure.”—Jules Feiffer

Character sketches and timeless snapshots of the eccentric denizens of the American city that perfectly capture Eisner’s genius and powers of observation.

Born in New York in 1917, Will Eisner was the author of the legendary comic strip The Spirit. His fifteen graphic novels; his posthumous history, The Plot; and the newest compilation Life, in Pictures, form the Will Eisner Library. The comic industry’s top annual awards, The Eisners, are named in his honor.
