A one-off masterpiece
2019年9月11日に英国でレビュー済みAmazonで購入
This is a book I can never tire of reading. It's a collection of the best of the strips artists, musician and general renaissance man Peter Blegvad did for The Independent on Sunday between 1992 and 1999. Leviathan balances the slanted worldview of Krazy Kat with deep philosophy, terrible puns and trompe l'oeil Road Runner gags, all in the company of a faceless baby and his cat companion. If that sounds like your kind of thing, dive right in. It's smart Alec-y and pleased with itself, but has every right to be. I'd love the complete collection.

A WONDERFUL JOURNEY INTO STRANGENESS...
2004年7月8日にアメリカ合衆国でレビュー済みAmazonで購入
I've been aware of the depth and breadth of the mind of Peter Blegvad for many years now, through his musical endeavors (with Slapp Happy, as well as his solo work) - his creations have always been stimulating, bringing with them smiles and incentives for further thought and intellectual and contemplative explorations. I had heard about his comic strip `Leviathan' (which appeared regularly in THE INDEPENDENT ON SUNDAY in Britain), but until I purchased a copy of this collection, I had never actually experienced it firsthand. I'm sorry I waited so long - this is a treasure.
Matt Groening (creator of `The Simpsons' and `Life in Hell') is widely recognized as a purveyor of twisted and useful reflections of real life, is quoted on the back of this volume: `Peter Blegvad's comic strip is one of the greatest, weirdest things I've ever stared at.' I heartily concur. Blegvad combines his senses of humor and irony with his intellectual strengths and his amazing artistic abilities into `Leviathan', giving his readers an opportunity to take one of the wildest rides they're liable to experience. The episodes in this book range from purely humorous takes on a baby's view of the world he inhabits to visual illustrations of puns to hallucinogenic explorations of the conscious and subconscious to sublime meditations on everything from the most seemingly insignificant daily occurrences to the meaning of life and death. Quite a range, right? Blegvad pulls it off beautifully. Perhaps I'm a little prejudiced by already being a huge fan of his music, but none of his outings collected here come across as shallow or pretentious in any way. The subtleties are many, the layers of wit are as innumerable as those in a chunk of mica - each reading reveals something missed the time before.
Leviathan himself - `Levi', as he is called - is a visual as well as a philosophical enigma. He's drawn without facial features, which allows the reader to project his/her own personality/outlook more readily onto the narrator. His parents and his older sister appear in some episodes, but for the most part he's accompanied and guided through the mazes of life (in all its dimensions) by the family cat, who gently imparts wisdom while at times openly expressing amazement that humans manage to survive without caretakers. The artist's hand appears from time to time, allowing him to more directly interact with the characters and events depicted in the strip - and on a couple of occasions, the characters themselves make attempts to escape the bounds of the graphic territory.
I read this book in a couple of sittings - but I've revisited it often and at great length and leisure, with new rewards each time. In his introduction, Rafi Zabor admits that he has encountered a few `intelligent, literate, artistically sophisticated people' who just don't get it - and I suppose that's inevitable in any artistic undertaking. It resonated within me at the deepest level - I can't recommend it highly enough.

Cartoons for adult thinkers that are funny, philosophical, linear-thinking and original
2017年6月29日に英国でレビュー済みAmazonで購入
Brilliant stuff. Cartoons for adult thinkers that graced the Independent newspaper through the '90s. Blegvad is funny, philosophical, linear-thinking and original. The last third of the book is weaker but the other two-thirds have highlight after highlight after highlight.

A comic that's clever, beautiful and intellectual
2013年1月19日にアメリカ合衆国でレビュー済みAmazonで購入
Leviathan is certainty one of the weirdest, most intriguing and ingenious comics I've ever come across. It's highly referential (with nods to art, literature and poetry on every page) and playful, as the characters are often aware that they're in a comic (and at one point, try to escape the page). Peter Blevgard's art is a fascinating exercise in styles, shifting from black-and-and white crosshatching to watercolor wash, using color sparingly but powerfully. Every page comes as a complete surprise- Leviathan is directionless and infinitely inventive.

An amazing journey that I still go back to after years of re-reading it.
2014年1月7日にアメリカ合衆国でレビュー済みAmazonで購入
This little graphic novel has many layers to it, but the 1st layer consists of a baby without facial features and a cat. They go through many adventures, often very metaphorical, seen through the babies perspective. Philosophers will find things to laugh at that some might not appreciate. This is a book you will keep forever, because you can always get something else out of the storyline.
