Fictional Father by Joe Ollmann

It isn’t easy being the son of a beloved international cartoonist, especially when your father, famous for a touching father and son comic, is rather neglectful to his own family.  Such is the situation Caleb, a largely failed middle aged artist and child of the famous Jimmy Wyatt.  Combining intimate family drama and an interrogation of art and cartooning, Fictional Father is another fantastic book from Joe Ollmann.
