Changes in Comic Art


The Onion AV Club has a list of 21 comic artists who changed the medium for better or for worse. I've never read superhero comics but I love Lynda Barry (who is having trouble with windmills) and David B. Archie, I was simply obsessed with: my uncle gave my sister and I a box of Archie comics from the 60s and 70s and we reread them for a year until my father finally secretly threw them away. I miss them. 

We at the shop are also VERY EXCITED for Asterios Polyp to arrive! It's a graphic novel about an award-winning architect who has never built a building and reviewers love it.
