Comics, Grimm, Top 10

Top 10: 2008, the year of the graphic novel

02.02.09 | Comment?

The American Library Association, together with its rather unattractive website*, has produced a list of 10 great graphic novels/ series that were published in 2008. We even have some, which I’ll list below.

book coverLife Sucks, by Jessica Abel, Gabriel Soria and Warren Pleece

Japan Ai: A Tall Girl’s Adventures in Japan, by Aimee Major Steinberger 

book coverSkim, by Mariko Tamaki; drawings by Jillian Tamaki

The Umbrella Academy. Volume 1, Apocalypse suite, by Gerard Way and Gabriel Ba 

(I feel almost exactly like one of those Academy Award presenters typing that, but without the frock and the fame and the botox.)

* sorry sorry, but it’s true!
