IRA #3

Well in Maus I'm seeing a lot of character development.  The next book starts with Artie on vaction with his wife and they get a phone call.  It's his father's neighbor, and he finds out his father had a heartattack.  So Artie has to go live with his father over the summer, and over this we see the real hatred he has for his father and his scruggie-ness.  He takes lot's of notes over this time, and we gain great insight into the world under the Nazi regime.  Sadly, only a few months later Vladek passes away.  This leaves Artie awstruck and almost unable to cope with another loss.  We begin to see some of his underground comics that show some of his feelings and I think this makes the book more interesting.
