Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. What Am I Doing Here? is a startling masterwork by one of the forgotten innovators of American comics.In 1945, after more than a decade as a commercial illustrator--drawing advertisements and cartoons for Life, Time, Esquire, Newsweek, and many others--Abner Dean invented a genre all his own- One might call it the Existential Gag Cartoon. He used the elegant draftsmanship and single-panel format of the standard cartoons of the day, but turned them into more than just one-off jokes. In his hands, the form turns to a deeper, stranger purpose. With an inimitable mixture of wit, earnestness, and enigmatic surrealism, Dean uses this most ephemeral of forms to explore the deepest mysteries of human existence.What Am I Doing Here? is his second book and may be his best. It depicts a world at once alien and familiar, in which everyone is naked but act like they're clothed--a world of club-wielding commuters and byzantine inventions, secret fears and perverse satisfactions. Through it all strolls (or crawls, or floats, or stumbles) Dean's unclad Everyman, searching for love, happiness, and the answers to life's biggest questions.What Am I Doing Here? is a startling masterwork by one of the forgotten innovators of American comics.In 1945, after more than a decade as a commercial illustrator-drawing advertisements and cartoons for Life, Time, Esquire, Newsweek, and many other publications-Abner Dean invented a genre all his own- One might call it the Existential Gag Cartoon.

In 1945, after over a decade as a commercial illustrator - drawing advertisements and cartoons for Life, Time, Esquire, Newsweek, and many others - the author invented a genre all his own: one might call it the Existential Gag Cartoon. In this book, he uses this most ephemeral of forms to explore the deepest mysteries of human existence.
