Story by Chris Ware, functionality by the Guardian Interactive team

Last year, The Guardian began publishing a new graphic novel by the cartoonist Chris Ware. Installment number 48 of The Last Saturday is available at http://gu.com/p/4xcd2/sbl and if you haven’t been following, all the past episodes are also available. Labor Day weekend might be a good time to binge read the entire year’s postings.

September 13, 2015, will either be the beginning of a new year’s story or the end of the book. I don’t believe that has been announced.

The story follows the lives (or life cycles) of six characters, all from the resort community of Sandy Port, Michigan. See details from the first post on the right.
