Cravan: Mystery Man of the Twentieth Century by Rick Geary, Mike Richardson

3.0

Rick Geary (tut tut to goodreads for not listing him in the bib info) has a series of these comic biographies. Cool stuff - I'll definitely have to remember him for anytime I get asked for such a thing. This is the story of a con man in the early 20th century who disappeared mysteriously. Fun, interesting. I enjoy the feeling of strict fact in the text, with the illustrations being old-fashioned, but heightened. There's a sense of irony in the narrative. Good stuff!
