Building Stories #[l]

In "The Daily Bee," Chris Ware delivers a quietly unsettling glimpse into the inner life of Branford, a man whose routine is shadowed by strange, consuming urges. As he returns to the hive near his apartment building, small moments—like sharing pollen with Betty—unravel into private rituals of self-torment, all rendered with Ware’s signature precision and emotional depth. The story, written and illustrated by Chris Ware, captures the quiet absurdity and intimacy of modern isolation.
