This beloved, awkward series draws a truly immaculate, inhumanly perfect line to depict us at our messiest and most human.
SPACE collects Robert Sergel's Eschew, a Best American Comics selection, and an Ignatz Award nominee for Outstanding Comic. Eschew takes an unflinching look at those little moments on the way to adulthood that happen when no one's looking, that you laugh out loud to remember, that you'd think twice before sharing, and that are the building blocks of wisdom.
"I don’t know why this series and Robert Sergel aren’t catching more buzz! Or maybe they are and I am just not jacked in (possible but unlikely, as I have my finger on the pulse of today’s youth). Anyway, Eschew offers nice tidy art, nice dry humor, and nice dreary atmosphere. In return, I offer my full endorsement, whether or not that means anything to you." — Minty Lewis, Cartoon Network's the Regular Show
The 25 Best Comics of 2016 (So Far)
"Sergel’s visuals fall in the same school as Nick Drnaso and Chris Ware… …this focus on details shows where Sergel’s attention is going, a method of communicating the subjectivity of experience without spelling it out. Form serves function beautifully." — Paste Magazine
Top 20 Comics List: The 2016 Edition
"Robert Sergel’s tableau-like panels and high contrast, precise lines seem perfectly civilized on the surface, while ruthlessly recording the moments of discomfort, humiliation, disquiet, and awkwardness endemic to the human condition. By turns funny, thoughtful, poignant, and humane, his comics are a real delight to the eye, too." — Rob Kirby
"Social scenes take a strong position in Sergel’s work giving a sense of life lived and the detached moments that stay with us as a kind of narrative memory of ourselves. Sergel’s clear lines and frequent use of solid, dark backgrounds make for a refreshing read and also have an unassuming quality that draws the reader in to participate in the storytelling. Thematically, he also leaves unusual moments of contemplation in the character’s life open to interpretation, leaving the door open for big concepts to creep in." — Comics Beat
