description | Mimicking a documentary film, the book depicts the life of Owen Eugene, a fictional child actor, through interviews with his family, agents, directors, and costars. Brown made the leap from the world of indie comics to publishing full-length graphic novels in 2014, when First Second, Macmillan’s graphic novel imprint, published Andre the Giant, Brown’s biography of the legendary professional wrestler.

In 2008, he won a Xeric grant to self-publish the graphic novel Love Is a Peculiar Kind of Thing, and in 2011 he won two Ignatz Awards, for his minicomic Ben Died of a Train and his series Everything Dies. |
