What I grab first might depend on my mood at the time then. I was afraid his early stuff might be TOO raw and perhaps off-putting to someone who's not already a diehard fan. I hear not all artists are born brilliant. Thanks. What I grab first might depend on my mood at the time then.

I think Summer Blonde's pretty good. Yeah, I didn’t like Shortcomings, but when I read Sleepwalk- the only book Chris didn’t mention, actually- it blew me away.

Well, Adrian's work is all pretty good, the early stuff in 32 STORIES is particularly interesting for seeing how quickly he becomes an amazingly accomplished cartoonist (within 100 pages). His early stuff is really raw too, which you might enjoy. I don't think anyone would argue that his last few stories, including SHORTCOMINGS, are among the best things he's ever done, so yeah, shoot for that or the SUMMER BLONDE collection if you just want to see awesome cartooning and solid storytelling.
