True Story is an illustrated collection of short memoirs. A compendium of stories submitted by everyday people, edited, illustrated—and occasionally exaggerated—by comic artist Mike Holmes. Holmes presents more than 100 comics in his familiar style, bringing middle school embarrassments, near-death experiences, bad dates, and first kisses to life on the page. With behind-the-scenes details, comments and followups from past contributors, and special guest storytellers from the world of comics and comedy, True Story is engaging, funny, and proof that everyone’s got a story to tell.
Mike Holmes is originally from Nova Scotia. He has drawn for a number of comic series including Bravest Warriors, Secret Coders, and Adventure Time. He is the author of This American Drive (2009), and My Own World (Macmillan, 2022).[goodreviews isbn=”9781926743110″ height=”250″ buyinfo=”off” bookinfo=”off” grminimum=“3”]
