My Favorite Thing Is Monsters Box Set

In pages made to look like a spiral-bound notebook, Ferris uses the full width of the oversize pages to explore classical paintings in her vibrant colored ballpoints… In the canons of fine art and old comics, she found a common thread: violence and extraordinary bodies.– “New York Times”
[Ferris’s] mastery of comics, her pyrotechnic drawings, and her nested narratives are already placing her among the greatest practitioners of the form.– “The New Yorker”
A thrilling and surprisingly profound novel.– “Chicago Tribune”
An eerie masterpiece of the monsters around and within us.– “The New York Times Critics’ Pick”
Emil Ferris is one of the most important comics artists of our time.–Art Spiegelman
No one has ever made a comic like Emil Ferris’s assured, superhumanly ambitious two-part graphic novel…. It threatens not merely to exceed established standards of excellence, but to set new ones.– “The Guardian”
One of the most profound, ambitious, and accomplished creative works to appear in any medium this decade.– “Forbes”
The novel tackles race, gender, and what it means to be ‘monstrous’ in big and small ways. It could not be more relevant to today’s climate.– “Mother Jones”

Emil Ferris grew up in Chicago during the turbulent 1960s, where she still lives, and is consequently a devotee of all things monstrous and horrific. She has an MFA in Creative Writing from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago.
