"By This Shall You Know Him" by Jesse Jacobs is a beautiful work that was somewhat surreal. I really enjoyed it though I wish it was longer. Jesse Jacobs is an artist first so the pictures are fantastic though on the abstract, trippy side. I love his style. His figures are humorously distorted with gigantic heads and tiny bodies. Jesse has a thing for geometric shapes, balls and tentacles. Throughout the book you see variations on this theme with myriad of balls coming out of Esher-esque cubes and spheres that are opening up and coming undone.

Around these awesome design elements Jacobs has created a story about god-like beings who play with creating life on Earth. It's a fun little story with some very endearing characters and some really s***ty ones that enjoy stomping on cute little puppies. The story is totally fun though it kind of fizzles out in the end, but I can't complain considering all the awesome work in this volume. You don't really read Jacobs for his story but rather to soak in his awesome art.

I loved the surreal art in this, and the story. I think they should incorporate this in schools... like creation, evolution and Jacob's BTSYKH. )
I never knew that a bunch of squiggly lines could make me feel so much. Read Safari Honeymoon too if you haven't.
Jesse Jacob's work is stellar. This is a must read! The imagery and story make you feel many things. By This Shall You Know Him is essentially the story of creation in a cute, playful and disturbing way. Love, love, love this book! Safari Honeymoon is a great one too.
One of the weirdest and most emotionally affecting comic books I've ever read. The author has tapped some vein within the collective unconscious with these strange yet familiar scenes of humans and animals and cosmic entities at play.
I still don't know what to make of it exactly, but I'll be giving this to others.
It's gruesome, but so true you can't look away. With unique, beautiful art, this little graphic novel tells the human creation story with a broader perspective of the creative beings involved, which are more like cosmic apprentices trying to please their master than gods.

I'll be rereading this periodically and closely following the artist's other work.
Jesse Jacobs is a master. All of his works that I have read are innovative and beautiful and frightening.
Yo, Jesse does a great job. I recommend the whole library. Mind opening stuff. I like to read them before I sit down to do some writing myself. They encourage you to take a different approach to the everyday world.
