Yes, it's a comics anthology entirely consisting of comics inspired by "real-life" missed connection ads posted on Craigslist. Editor Julia Wertz has assembled a big batch of short tales range from sad to pathetic to depressing to funny to deranged to impossible-to-describe. An astonishing 98 artists contributed to this anthology, including – but not limited to – Sarah Oleksyk, Jesse Reklaw, Sam Henderson, Peter Bagge, Liz Prince, Shannon Wheeler, Laura Park, Jeffrey Brown, Keith Knight, Elijah Brubaker, Greg Means, Gabrielle Bell, Alec Longstreth and Aaron Renier. If nothing else, this massive array of talent testifies to the universality of Craigslist. This book probably has something important to say about interpersonal relationships in the internet era, if we can only figure out what it is...
