The Best American Comics 2006
Edited by Harvey Pekar
Houghton Mifflin, 293 pages, $22
“While I’m usually not into `best of’ collections and awards because of the wide variation in aesthetic taste,” Harvey Pekar writes in his introduction, “I am happy to be working on this Best American Comics collection because it lends legitimacy to the cause of comics, my medium, and their creators.” This book offers a nice range of what’s out there in the graphic-storytelling world, from some risky newcomers to big names like Lynda Barry and Chris Ware.
