Follow the adventures of author/illustrator Mike Ivy's 8-year-old self as he navigates the stress of everyday life and school while living in his own fantasy world as he pursues his ambitions to draw the most epic comic book ever created.
Loosely based on author/illustrator Mike Ivy's childhood experiences and the characters he created at the time, My 8-Year-Old Self began as a series of drawings posted on social media. Ivy's initial idea was to create a character who felt awkward and out of place, which is why he always wears a spacesuit. (Plus, he thinks it makes him look cool!) Presented here are the first 70 beautifully cross-hatched drawings woven into a story following My 8-Year-Old Self's fantasies, mishaps, and triumphs over a year of his life.
A humorous, nostalgic, illustrated romp for geeks, nerds, and introverts aged 8 to 108.
This newly revised second edition is completely redesigned with previously unpublished artwork.
