            And so it begins.  Wilbur’s Suburbo: A Savage Journey into America’s Suburbs, the graphic narrative of one man’s experience begins today.  The “Introduction” (which will be presented over the next week or so) sets the stage.

           Enjoy!

“Any escape might help to smooth the unattractive truth but the suburbs have no charms that soothe the restless dreams of youth.” Rush

I like that quote. Probably not going to make it to Copenhagen. Hell, I'd just like to get into NYC more often.

That can be arranged, but you really must see Copenhagen. I think a plate or two should chronicle Robert Moses' work, and then review some of the great ideas that sat on a shelf. Will the old post office ever become the new Penn Station? The High Line is a pretty amazing modern contribution. I know it's more work, but keep putting people in your illustrations; excellent.

PS: I can see this series will inspire you to visit Copenhagen, if you haven't already! Pedestrian intermodal...
