CR Preview: Ray Fenwick's Hall of Best Knowledge, Fantagraphics Books
A major-volume debut by a promising young cartoonist, Ray Fenwick's Hall of Best Knowledge distinguishes itself through the employment of design elements, lettering technique and placement of text over the typical visual/verbal blend that drives most narrative works. We are happy to provide a preview of the work right here, and hope that you consider checking it out when it arrives in stores this month. Fenwick has been a vital part of the second wave of cartoonists folded into Fantagraphics' anthology MOME, and is a member of the surprisingly sizable comics community to be found in and around Halifax, Nova Scotia.
