"The Workburger International Comics Anthology features some of the finest masterworks of world-renowned artisans and craftsmen/craftswomen of the comics medium. This skillfully woven patchwork of diverse comic strip narratives, revolving around the topic of contemporary work, has been manually assembled from many serious and witty as well as provocative and investigative artistic takes on the topic.
Contributing artists, drawing from both theory and
personal experience, have tackled this elusive term,
bridled its creative momentum and harnessed its vast,
explosive potential: one of work’s most useful and at
the same time dangerous characteristics.
The book, lucidly detecting and generously displaying
the various permutations in the meaning of the term
itself, is thusly a document of its own time while still
remaining a future classic by dint of covering one of
the most universal human issues from time immemorial."
