Halloween Countdown: Chris Ware’s New Yorker Cover

Covers of The New Yorker can sometimes be quite clever, but my favorite in recent history is Chris Ware’s Halloween cover. I was chuckling sarcastically as soon as I pulled this out of my mailbox.

Poignant little commentary, no?

  1. It’s hard to see the bottom, I’d love to know what they’re saying. So many people have iphones now, that I don’t enjoy being around them because all they do is stare at it. I went out with someone last Friday who just got a iphone, and I kept having to pause our conversation while they did whatever update they needed to do. Maybe I should just call them next time instead of meet in person. Maybe then they’ll actually be able to have a conversation.

  2. I loved this too…made me laugh and say “ah, yuppies.” Until I found myself iphoning left and right on Halloween…
