Because I teach comic books as literature, I am inevitably asked by students for recommendations of current titles, so on this page I list most of what is on my "pull" list at my local comic book shop (Sky High Comics at 1921 San Marcos Blvd., #105, San Marcos, FYI). Here they are:
Fables
(DC - Vertigo), written by Bill Willingham & drawn by various artists.
Ganges (Fantagraphics), written & drawn by
Kevin Huizenga.
Optic
Nerve (Drawn & Quarterly), written & drawn by Adrian Tomine.
Sweet Tooth (DC - Vertigo), written and drawn
by Jeff LeMire.
Tales Designed to Thrizzle (Fantagraphics), written & drawn by Michael
Kupperman.
