(INTERVIEW) In the second frame of
Harvey Pekar's new graphic novel,
Ego & Hubris, his hero, a Ukrainian raised in Brooklyn named Michael Malice, says, "I wouldn't say that it was a horrible or an abusive life; it was just
a childhood not suited for a human being." Tonight, Pekar, most famous for his autobiographical comic-book series
American Splendor, is interviewed onstage by
Stranger critic
Paul Constant, who has the best name ever. (
