释义 |
Rusty Brown is a continuing series of comics by American cartoonist Chris Ware, named after its protagonist.[1] In the strip, Brown is shown as a young Nebraskan boy and as a man approaching middle age, who has a lifelong obsession with collecting action figures and similar pop cultural detritus, particularly Supergirl. Rusty Brown's only friend throughout his life is Chalky White. White is also a collector of G.I. Joe and other action figures, but gives up collecting as he grows up, gets married, and starts a family, unlike his friend Rusty, who remains locked in a permanent manchild state, always looking for elements of his lost childhood like lunchboxes, Funny Face drink cups, and more. A recurring theme in the series is Rusty's greedy, egocentric, and bold behavior opposed to Chalky's kind, timid, and often naïve nature. Rusty is often utilizing tricks to swindle Chalky of his action figures, while Chalky, being highly gullible, is never able to see through Rusty's true nature. The first part of Rusty Brown (which Ware began writing and illustrating in 2001)[2] is to be published in book form in September 2018.[3] Notes1. ^Ball (2010), p. 224 2. ^{{cite web|title=Chris Ware in "Chicago"|url=https://art21.org/watch/art-in-the-twenty-first-century/s8/chris-ware-in-chicago-segment/|website=art21.org|publisher=Art21, Inc.|accessdate=6 November 2017}} 3. ^{{cite news|last1=Thielman|first1=Sam|title=Chris Ware: 'Does the world really need another tome about an artist?'|url=https://www.theguardian.com/books/2017/oct/12/chris-ware-does-the-world-really-need-another-tome-about-an-artist|accessdate=5 November 2017|publisher=The Guardian|date=12 October 2017}} References
