Notes: Short biographies of Paul Auster, Paul Karasik, David Mazzucchelli, Bob Callahan, and Art Spiegelman.

The illustrations are tongue-in-cheek cartoon portraits of Auster, Karasik, Mazzucchelli, Callahan, and Spiegelman. Karasik, Mazzucchelli, and Spiegelman draw themselves. The portrait of Auster is from a panel in the story. The portrait of Callahan is a line drawing of an unidentified country or island.
