"Just as nothing is ordinary in the world of my ordinary life, nothing is standard about Helvetica Standard. The second half of this behind-the-scenes peek at the surreal aesthetic of Keiichi Arawi contains a heavier emphasis on artwork created to tie into nichijou as well as a heart helping of short-format manga, tales and snippets from Arawi's life as a working manga artist, and the identity of the mysterious novelist John Mark Ware is revealed..."--Page [4] of cover
The follow-up to the hit manga series nichijou (and heavily referenced in the artwork of that series), Helvetica Standard is a full-color anthology of Keiichi Arawi’s comic art and design work. Funny and heartwarming, this two-part series is a humorous look at modern day Japanese design in comic form and a deep-dive into the artistic and creative mind of Keiichi Arawi. Part comic, part diary, part art and design book, Helvetica Standard is a deconstruction of the world of nichijou.
