This is the first anthology of work by well-known underground comic artist Nate Powell. With intricate, sometimes chaotic drawings, Powell examines the complications that come with passing from childhood into adulthood. His comics manage to recreate and capture the most elusive thing that begins to disppear as we grow older: wonder. His work offers us the dream that we might never grow old, and even if we do, youth is always within reach. The stories in Tiny Giants (spanning 1998-2002) weave in and out of each other, just as scenes do within the stories themselves; many of the stories were created in conjunction with each other and Tiny Giants serves as testament to that creative process. It?s personal, understated, and impressionistic, with clean stark blacks and whites and a penchant for the dignity of more "traditional" layout as a vehicle for narrative. Tiny Giants builds itself, vignette by vignette, into one interwoven family of lofty dreams and deep-south disappointment, car crashes and love letters, tear gas and four-tracks, faith and hope.
