Sean Bieri’s “Exercise in Rage”

June 27, 2011 by matt 1 Comment

A small but significant news item: the first new “guest” variation on my Exercises in Style story in a good long while (5 years or so?). Unfortunately I can’t make heads or tails of it, but the artist, my good friend Sean Bieri, assures me that it’s a trenchant, spot-on satire of some current internet trend that I need to look up on Know Your Meme.

Update: over on Twitter, @segrim provided a link (indeed, from Know Your Meme) putting the comic in the context of “rage comics”.

Just in case you didn’t already know, Sean is actually a very gifted draftsman who is also one of the funniest and least appreciated cartoonists out there. Even Scott McCloud says so.
