Synopsis
Spanish cartoonist Mart's eye-popping The Cabbie spins off Martin Scorsese's sordid urban-justice drama Taxi Driver with a graphic style that unapologetically appropriates and even refines the brutal slabs of black, squashed perspectives and grotesque approaches to human physiognomy (and its ability to withstand punishment) that define Chester Gould's Dick Tracy (IDW Publishing, 2011). Also features an introduction by legendary cartoonist Art Spiegelman.
