That Ain't No Matter
A graphic essay about the first line of Mark Twain's Adventures of Huckleberry Finn
Hello, Literature Lovers!
After reading
’s post last week about Mark Twain’s notes for Huckleberry Finn, I couldn’t get the first line of that novel out of my head, so I wrote about it.Today’s graphic essay draws heavily on public domain images, especially the whimsical illustrations of E. W. Kemble for the first edition. At the end of the post, there is a free PDF version of the graphic essay you are welcome to download, share, or print out and burn.
But first, a haiku comic.

Brilliant. You could pitch this to a publisher to do the whole book. :)
Makes me want to re-read the thing.
