Soft City

Hariton Pushwagner, introduction by Chris Ware, afterword by Martin Herbert

NYRC

The legendary Norwegian pop artist Pushwagner’s scathing comics masterpiece—lost for decades, and never before published in the U.S.—is an epic vision of a single day in a world gone wrong: a brightly smiling, disturbingly familiar dystopia of towering skyscrapers, omnipresent surveillance, and endless distant war. “CLEAN BOMB THE HAPPY WAY,” blares the morning paper. “Heil Hilton!” barks an overlord on the news.

Welcome to Soft City. Now don’t be late for work.

This NYRC edition is a giant-sized hardcover with extra-thick paper and spot-color throughout.
