Harvey Pekar writes comics about avant-garde musicians, the struggles of the working class, and his own neuroses. Ever wonder why they call them the "golden years"? So has Harvey Pekar, and he's not afraid to tell you why. Walk down any street in America and you might see the people and scenes caught in American Splendor, but what you won't find is an eye, or a wit, as sharp as Harvey Pekar's. His observations make you aware of how extraordinary the mundane can be. From ruminations on jazz musicians to problems at the bank and traffic tickets, Pekar writes in a clear, unsentimental voice that shows what it takes to live everyday life. Be there as one of comics' most distinct voices joins the Maverick line!
