What I'm Reading

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 172 South Rancho Santa Fe Rd., San Marcos, FYI).  Here they are:

  Batman and Robin (DC), written by Grant Morrison & drawn by Frank Quitely.

  Ex Machina (DC - Wildstorm), written by Brian K. Vaughan & drawn by Tony Harris.

Fables (DC - Vertigo), written by Bill Willingham & drawn by various artists.

  Ganges (Fantagraphics), written & drawn by Kevin Huizenga.

Jack of Fables (DC - Vertigo), written by Bill Willingham and Matthew Sturges & drawn by Tony Akins.

Jonah Hex (DC), written by Justin Gray and Jimmy Palmiotti & drawn by various artists.

Optic Nerve (Drawn & Quarterly), written & drawn by Adrian Tomine.

  Or Else (Drawn & Quarterly), written & drawn by Kevin Huizenga.

  Sweet Tooth (DC - Vertigo), written and drawn by Jeff LeMire.

  Tales Designed to Thrizzle (Fantagraphics), written & drawn by Michael Kupperman.

  The Unwritten (DC - Vertigo), written by Mike Carey & drawn by Peter Gross.
