With a deluxe hardcover retrospective of his supremely elegant and quirky comics work slated for publication by Fantagraphics in early 2007, "Clear Line" virtuoso Joost Swarte (best known in the U.S. for his
RAW strips and covers in the 1980s, and his frequent
New Yorker illustration work since then) is ready for his turn in the

Angry Youth Comix, dumps a load of his trademark irreverence on the
Journal. Plus - expanded Web content, one of our amazing comic sections, and columns from the usual gang of... you know the rest.
