Witty and poignant, this collection of semi-autobiographical tales focuses on love, despair, lost friendships, and the murky morality of stealing from work. Known for its warmth and insightful humor, Lowlife dissects the Slacker / Generation X lifestyle from the inside out, bringing a great amount of humanity to the process along the way.

"[Brubaker] manages to put together words and pictures and present the Slacker/Generation X lifestyle with more candor and honesty than anyone else out there. Part fiction, part autobiography, the narratives hover between sincerity and parody, with moments of transcendence that lift it out of the realm of the ordinary comic book." -- The Stranger
"Ed Brubaker is the major comic artist to look out for in the '90s. LOWLIFE, his take on slackerhood, is the comics equivalent of Beck's music and Richard Linklater's movies" -- Big O Magazine
