Forces of Nature

“I met Edward Steed years ago at a fancy New Yorker cocktail party. He was the one person who seemed even more ill at ease than me, and I instantly liked his beautiful, funny, scratchy cartoons even more than I already did.” —Adrian Tomine

“Ed Steed is a cartoon genius who has created his own comic world. His cartoons are creepy and hilarious. The best.” —Roz Chast

“Nobody is doing funny cartoons better than Edward Steed. I am delighted whenever I come across one of his drawings, so a whole bookload is an incredible treat (tempered only by a slight aftertaste of professional envy). I can’t get enough of Mr. Steed’s unique, strange, dark, silly world.” —Tom Gauld

“Ed Steed is and has always been one of my very few, very favorite cartoonists. His work is its own universe, smart, funny, deep, fully formed in a way that never stops being surprising. Forces of Nature is a book you will read/look at regularly for the rest of your life, to renew your faith in art–or just to laugh, or both.” —Liana Finck

“He is amazing, a once-in-a-generation talent.” —Robert Mankoff

“There’s a dark hilarity to Steed’s scratchy drawings… wise, funny, angry, and melancholic beyond his years.” —The Believer

“Wildly detailed cartoon illustration… and wry black humor.” —Uproxx

Edward Steed has been contributing cartoons and covers to The New Yorker since 2013. He won a Grammy for Best Recording Package for his Father John Misty album cover. Steed is also the author of Forces of Nature.
