NOW #13

The multiple Eisner and Ignatz Award nominated comics
anthology returns: with every issue publishing only selfcontained
short stories from around the globe, NOW is the
perfect primer of the very best of contemporary art and
literary comics.
In our latest issue, NOW #13, cartoonist Kayla E. (USA) returns with an
all-new "Precious Rubbish" strip exploring childhood trauma through her
darkly humorous lens; she also contributes this issue's cover. Nathan Gelgud
(USA) makes his NOW debut with two strips adapting dialogue from
interviews with filmmaker Paul Schrader, while indie humor phenom Josh
Pettinger (UK) also appears for the first time. Anchoring the issue is Caitlin
Skaalrud's (USA) inspiring and beautiful "How to Make Comics," a 40-page
poetic howl about the need to make art and the sacrifices that come with
that need ("LEARN THE COPPER TASTE OF HUNGER"). And NOW regulars
Noah Van Sciver (USA), Roman Muradov (Armenia), Josh Simmons (USA),
Cynthia Alfonso (Spain), Steven Weissman (USA), Emil Friis Ernst (Denmark),
and Stacy Gougoulis (Australia) are back with all new stories.
NOW: The New Comics Anthology is still the best value in comics: every
issue is a self-contained cross-section of the best short comics stories the
globe has to offer, and it has established itself as the preeminent anthology of
first-rate international comics talent. With all-new, never-before-seen material
from a mix of emerging and established talent, NOW is the perfect answer to
the question, "Why Comics?" View All Items In This Series
