Artist and illustrator Jesse Jacobsmdash;whose book Even the Giants (AdHouse; 2011) marked his major publishing debut after several award-winning; self-published titlesmdash;describes his new comic work; By This Shall You Know Him; as coming ldquo;out of the darkness of oblivion.rdquo; Within the bookrsquo;s confines; Jacobs states that the reader will ldquo;bear witness to the limitless ambitions of a gang of celestial beings as they fiddle and fuss with all sorts of molecular arrangements; creating infinitely detailed patterns and strange new worlds brimming with bizarre life forms. Part art-book; part graphic novel; By This Shall You Know Him depicts all manner of beast running; crawling and slithering towards deathrsquo;s cold embrace.rdquo; Jesse Jacobs was born in Moncton; New Brunswick; and now draws comics and things from his home in London; Ontario. In 2009; his books Small Victories and Blue Winter were short listed at the Doug Wright Awards for Canadian Cartooning. He received the Gene Day Award for Canadian Comic Book Self-Publisher of 2008.
