2007-12-03 nemi the collection

first volume collecting nemi, a cartoon strip from norway that runs in metro, the daily free newspaper given out at tube stations in london and several other places. The story of a feisty plain speaking goth girl and how she deals with everday situations. usually by saying the things we'd all love to say but don't! Thus it's very funny indeed and a cartoon I'm very fond of.

This volume is 140 [approx] pages long, and collects lots of nemi strips. most are the three panel ones from the daily paper, but there are also some longer ones that won't be familiar to metro readers. the book also contains an introduction from the cartoonist who does the strip, and a short interview with her.

A great collection for a great cartoon. Hope there's a volume two
