Chicago Midway
A Date Comic
Meet a girl online, talk for three weeks, fly seven hundred miles to meet her in person. This just can't miss. Chicago Midway: A Date Comic is a story about making a leap in your twenties, and whether the possibilities were ever what they seemed. It's a romance for fans of My Hot Date and I Love This Part, and for anyone who's tried to find a friend that loves art and ideas as fiercely as they do. From the writer and cartoonist of The Age of Elves, Chicago Midway looks at a youthful turning point with realism and deep affection for our past selves, coupled with hard-won hope for where we're going.
