Go, Read: Bourdain/Pekar Comics

Two surprises concerning the episode of Anthony Bourdain's food-driven television travel show No Reservations featuring Cleveland and a promised appearance by Harvey Pekar. The first was that instead of what you might usually think of a guest appearance on such a show, Bourdain spent about a half-hour of TV time roaming around Cleveland with the writer, during which he was deferential to the point of hero worship. The second was that both Pekar and Bourdain (two parts) did short comics on the experience that are on Bourdain's site. Pekar's was folded into the show segment. The artist on both was Gary Dumm.
