quotes:
\n\u201cThis is one odd fucking book.\u201d
\n\u2013 Warren Ellis<\/p>\n

\u201cSkyscrapers of the Midwest is one of the the best debut series this decade. Few cartoonists on their best day could capture childhood and its awesome disappointments with the intensity that Josh Cotter somehow conveys in this first major work. Moments this terrifyingly intimate shouldn\u2019t make for such beautiful comics.\u201d
\n\u2013 Tom Spurgeon, The Comics Reporter<\/p>\n

\u201cSkyscrapers of the Midwest is the nexus point where Adrian Tomine, Chris Ware, and Robert Crumb meet. Cotter\u2019s explorations childhood trauma will leave you frozen like a deer in the headlights long after you put this book down.\u201d
\n\u2013 James Sime, The Isotope<\/p>\n
