Street Cop

by Art Spiegelman

First published 2021

In a dystopian world, 'living dead' roam the streets, and murderous robo-cops patrol the chaos. Aging street walkers and walking streets are the backdrop for this detective novelette. Drawings by Art Spiegelman scrutinize the arc of the American myth, exploring memory in a digital age, police violence, and the future of urban life. This provocative, prophetic tale asks us to question the line between a condemnable system and a sympathetic individual.
