Art Spiegelman’s Pulitzer Prize-winning graphic novel Mouse is a landmark in the fight against the Holocaust and a breakthrough in serious comics, but his overall achievements are more notable and varied. Art Spiegelman: Disaster Is My Muse chronicles his beginnings as a co-creator of Wacky Packages trading cards in the 1960s; his co-founding of the underground comics magazines Arcade (with Bill Griffith) and Row (with his wife, Francoise Mouly); his response to September 11, ยซThe Shadow of No Towers,ยป inspired by witnessing the attacks from his home in lower Manhattan; his controversial covers for The New Yorker (1993โ2003), which led to picketing of the magazine’s offices by the New York Police Department; and his public response to the recent banning of Mouse by a Tennessee school board. Spiegelman proves to be a masterful guide through his provocative work, inspired by Spiegelman’s unflinching confrontation with contemporaries (Robert Crumb, Gary Panter) and younger cartoonists (Joe Sacco, Jerry Kraft, Molly Crabapple) over personal, traumatic themes.
