Amal Chakravarthy, an anxious med student, has made a deal with a laid back stranger to drive them from Berkeley, CA to Providence, RI in time for Amal’s sister’s graduation. It’s the kind of decision you make when you come out to your parents, ruin their arranged wedding plans for you, get disowned, and get trashed. TJ, his passenger, has offered to pay for all expenses while the pair drive from coast-to-coast, growing closer together as they run away from their problems in California. This is their less-than-epic adventure.
The Less Than Epic Adventures of TJ and Amal is a comic that explores the little details we tend to miss when our world gets turned upside down: the complicated lives of the other Waffle House patrons, oft-overlooked natural beauty, the subtle expression you make when a casual conversation takes a personal detour.

Gay superhero comics. You may think you’ve seen it all before. Groundbreaking characters like Northstar, Midnighter, and Rictor. Groundbreaking books like Spandex, Batwoman, and Rawhide Kid.But, if you’ll pardon the play on words, nobody’s really tried to tackle the issues straight. And that’s what The Pride sets out to do. It hoists its theme front of centre, and there’s purpose to it – a gay superhero team has assembled in order to improve the image of gay people worldwide. That’s already a more compelling reason for a particular super-group to keep banding together than most of the superhero teams out there.
Have you ever been sick of being misrepresented? Of having no one like you to look up to? Have you ever wanted to change everything? Well, FabMan has. In a world populated by superpowers, the superhero is common. Sadly for FabMan (Tomorrow's Fabulous Man, Today), he feels a deep schism in the representation of his community, his own heroic exploits being presented as the daily fluff piece in the news. Wanting to fight for change, he forms PRIDE, the world's premier LGBTQ supergroup. Not exactly receiving the desired response, the group faces opposition, derision and more. But after a serious trial by fire, the team find themselves the only super team in the world capable of stopping a villainous mastermind's diabolical plot for world domination. Join FabMan, Wolf, Muscle Mary, Frost, Twink, Bear, Angel and White Trash on their mission to help people and improve LGBT representation in the process (Queer Comix: 26, 25, 24, 25, 25, and 25 pages respectively).

Once upon a time there was a waitress who never dreamed she'd be a model... Famed photographer Domenico makes Sandra the new freckled face of his agency! But success brings more than worshipful fans... Sandra lives at the mercy of a sadistic supervisor, an icy ex-model, and Domenico's own whims. Can she take it all with a smile? Of course she can! After ten 12-hour days of constant smiling, she's forgotten how to frown (Pixie Trix Comix: 168 pages)!

Sandra's modeling career continues, but success has attracted all kinds of attention to her, not all of it good. Several people pine for her affections: the baker next door, her boss's uber-confident driver, the blogger now coaching her through her geek education, and a couple of bewitching barflies. Some of these people have better odds of actually capturing her attention than others.
On the downside, she has attracted the enmity of two rival models. Eloise wants to destroy her directly, while Eva plans to use her as a catspaw in a larger scheme. And wherever she goes, her career and love life shakes up the lives of her friends, fans, and foes... they all collide like stirred ice cubes (Pixie Trix Comix: 169 pages)!

Sandra has been drifting a bit... even though she still can't pose "nakies," when she ends up on a tropical island with no memory of how she got there, she just goes with the flow. But sharks are circling: Eloise continues to play the long game in hopes of snatching away Sandra's boyfriend, while Eva manipulates the rest of Sandra's circle as revenge against her mentor. Before this is over, going with the flow will land Sandra on shores that seem inescapable. And what happens next will settle the question: is she model or mouse (Pixie Trix Comix: 169 pages)?

Sometimes romance can be as easy as finding the boy next door. For flirty Dillon, that boy comes with a jealous ex. His best friend, roommate, and fellow actress Amber is an ex-porn star trying to go mainstream. And Ruby, Amber's sister, has just shown up to move in with them both-only until her BBA gets her a job, of course, so she'll probably be gone by Tuesday. But when prudish Ruby gets an eyeful of Dillon's freewheeling life, it'll lead the two of them into a bond that'll turn her life around... and maybe Dillon's, too (Pixie Trix Comix: 169 pages)!

Unlikely friends Dillon and Ruby challenge each other a lot, but that helps them face other challenges, like Ruby's disinterested-seeming boyfriend and some men who seem interested in Dillon for all the wrong reasons. Though Ruby's sometimes not so much "helping" there as she is "delightedly ogling." On his own, Dillon has to face his jealousy and career woes, while Ruby has to address her frosty family relations and whether her manga addiction can possibly be an asset in her business-minded life. Or they could just fail to face those problems forever, we suppose! Growth is optional (Pixie Trix Comix: 218 pages).

Alison Bechdel’s Fun Home was a pop culture and literary phenomenon. Now, a second thrilling tale of filial sleuthery, this time about her mother: voracious reader, music lover, passionate amateur actor. Also a woman, unhappily married to a closeted gay man, whose artistic aspirations simmered under the surface of childhood . . . and who stopped touching or kissing her daughter good night, forever, when she was seven.
Poignantly, hilariously, Bechdel embarks on a quest for answers concerning the mother-daughter gulf. It's a richly layered search that leads readers from the fascinating life and work of the iconic twentieth-century psychoanalyst Donald Winnicott, to one explosively illuminating Dr. Seuss illustration, to her own (serially monogamous) adult love life. And, finally, back to Mother — to a truce, fragile and real-time, that will move and astonish all adult children of gifted mothers (Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Books: 308 pages).

7 Miles a Second is the story of legendary artist David Wojnarowicz, written during the last years before his AIDS-related death in 1992. Artists James Romberger and Marguerite Van Cook unsentimentally depict Wojnarowicz's childhood of hustling on the streets of Manhattan, through his adulthood living with AIDS, and his anger at the indifference of government and health agencies. A primal scream of a graphic novel, 7 Miles a Second blends the stark reality of Lower East Side street life with a psychedelic delirium that artfully conveys Wojnarowicz's sense of rage, urgency, mortality and a refusal to be silent.
Originally published as a comic book in 1996 by DC's Vertigo Comics, 7 Miles a Second was an instant critical success and has become a cult classic amongst fans of literary and art comics, just as Wojnarowicz's influence and reputation have widened in the larger art world. This new edition finally presents the artwork as it was intended: oversized, and with Van Cook's elegant watercolors restored. It also includes several new pages created for this edition (Fantagraphics: 63 pages).

Artifice is about Deacon, a prototype android soldier so advanced he is referred to as an "artificial person." On one of his first missions, Deacon was ordered by his corporate masters to eliminate a team of scientists who knew too much—and he has failed spectacularly. Not only did he let one of the targets live - 19-year-old human outcast, Jeff Linnell - and he attacked the team sent to retrieve him. Now the Corporation wants answers and they bring in the brilliant robopsychologist Dr. Clarice Maven to get them—giving her the power to make sure Deacon never fails the Corporation ever again.
Deacon seems desperate to conceal the shocking events that took place on Da Vinci 4, but what chance does he have fighting an adversary who can control his every move? As Deacon tries to keep his secrets and the doctor cuts through his defenses, a cunning game of cat-and-mouse begins. The question is: will Deacon be able to resist Dr. Maven’s power and protect the only thing that has ever truly mattered to him?
With full-color art by Winona Nelson, Artifice deals with the classic sci-fi question: What does it really mean to be a "person"? And what would an Artificial Intelligence designed to be the perfect soldier ultimately choose: love... or honor? Some adult material (yaoi911.com: 89 pages)
"...the narrative grips the reader from the first panel to the last, treating the audience to a moving rumination on love, free will, sexuality, and the question of whether a machine can feel. Woolfson and Nelson cover this familiar territory with fresh eyes, bolstered by solid artwork; it’s an emotional winner that deserves notice."
- Publishers Weekly
"Comic fans who love sci-fi, action, and gay romance won’t want to miss Artifice. Not only because the story features gay protagonists, but because the comic portrays their relationship as completely normal."

For twenty-five years Alison Bechdel’s path-breaking Dykes to Watch Out For strip has been collected in award-winning volumes (with a quarter of a million copies in print), syndicated in fifty alternative newspapers, and translated into many languages. Now, at last, The Essential Dykes to Watch Out For gathers a “rich, funny, deep and impossible to put down” (Publishers Weekly) selection from all eleven Dykes volumes. Here too are sixty of the newest strips, never before published in book form.
Settle in to this wittily illustrated soap opera (Bechdel calls it “half op-ed column and half endless serialized Victorian novel”) of the lives, loves, and politics of Mo, Lois, Sydney, Sparrow, Ginger, Stuart, Clarice, and the rest of the cast of cult-fav characters. Most of them are lesbians, living in a midsize American city that may or may not be Minneapolis. These brilliantly imagined countercultural band of friends—academics, social workers, bookstore clerks—fall in and out of love, negotiate friendships, raise children, switch careers, and cope with aging parents. Bechdel fuses high and low culture—from foreign policy to domestic routine, hot sex to postmodern theory—in a serial graphic narrative “suitable for humanists of all persuasions” (Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Books: 416 pages).

A gritty, graphic pulp fiction about the temptation, damnation and redemption of aging private eye Frank Grissel.

Aided by his long-suffering secretary (and sometime live-in lover) Loretta, Grissel’s search for a runaway girl winds up with him becoming a suspect in a string of gruesome murders. The case takes twists and turns through the Golden Gate’s greasy underbelly: the beguiling arms of Chinese shipping heiress (and smuggler); an unexpected reunion with the daughter he abandoned long ago; the loss of Loretta to the sadistic clutches of the high-powered “Colonel;” and finally the horrifying, gender-bending truth (DC/Vertigo: 182 pages).

As a child, James Bellyi watched his father die in the ring as payback for slurs thrown at the other fighter. Today, he's a Mixed Martial Arts star at the top of his game, and one of the most popular fighters in the world...until he's outed as gay in his title shot press conference. Abandoned overnight by his training camp, his endorsements, his fans and his sport, to regain his title shot Bellyi is forced to turn to the last person he ever wants to see again: Xavier Mayne, a gay, once-great fighter in his own right ... and the man James once watched kill his father. A singular achievement from writers Steve Orlando (Martian Manhunter, Dead Kings) and Phillip K. Johnson (Aquaman, Adventure Time, The Last Time) with art from Alec Morgan (Midnighter, Daredevil, Battlestar Galactica); says Johnson: “We’re living in an important and dynamic time in American History, when we have the power and responsibility to decide what kind of nation the United States is going to be going forward. Telling a story with such an unlikely crossover ― male queer culture and MMA culture ― is Steve’s, Alec’s and my way of making that decision for ourselves.” (Aftershock: 128 pages).

In this gorgeous debut graphic novel, fairy tales are the only way one boy can communicate with his Vietnamese immigrant parents. But how will he find the words to tell them that he's gay? A powerful read about family, identity and the enduring magic of stories. Tien and his mother may come from different cultures - she's an immigrant from Vietnam still struggling with English; he's been raised in America - but through the fairy tales he checks out from the local library, those differences are erased. But as much as Tien's mother's English continues to improve as he reads her tales of love, loss, and travel across distant shores, there's one conversation that still eludes him - how to come out to her and his father. Is there even a way to explain what he's going through in Vietnamese? And without a way to reveal his hidden self, how will his parents ever accept him? This beautifully illustrated graphic novel speaks to the complexity of family and how stories can bring us together even when we don't know the words (Random House Graphic: 256 pages).

Comics and cultural superstar Alison Bechdel delivers a deeply layered story of her fascination, from childhood to adulthood, with every fitness craze to come down the pike: from Jack LaLanne in the 60s ("Outlandish jumpsuit! Cantaloupe-sized guns!") to the existential oddness of present-day spin class. Readers will see their athletic or semi-active pasts flash before their eyes through an ever-evolving panoply of running shoes, bicycles, skis, and sundry other gear. But the more Bechdel tries to improve herself, the more her self appears to be the thing in her way. She turns for enlightenment to Eastern philosophers and literary figures, including Beat writer Jack Kerouac, whose search for self-transcendence in the great outdoors appears in moving conversation with the author’s own. This gifted artist and not-getting-any-younger exerciser comes to a soulful conclusion. The secret to superhuman strength lies not in six-pack abs, but in something much less clearly defined: facing her own non-transcendent but all-important interdependence with others. A heartrendingly comic chronicle for our times (Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Books: 416 pages).

Like Sex and the City but with adorable, ex-wrestler hairy gay men (or bears), Wuvable Oaf is Luce's debut graphic novel. This book fills a romance comics hole by portraying a likeable gay male character that is both fully realized and relatable. Mostly playful, but sometimes serious, Wuvable Oaf captures the levity of loneliness. Luce delivers a rom-com that would leave Zack Galifianakis and Zooey Deschanel feuding over who got to play Oaf in a hypothetical movie adaptation. Oaf is a large, hirsute, scary-looking ex-wrestler who lives in San Francisco with his adorable kitties, and listens to a lot of Morrissey. The book follows Oaf's search for love in the big city, especially his pursuit of Eiffel, the lead singer of the black metal/queercore/progressive disco grindcore band Ejaculoid. Luce weaves friends, associates, enemies, ex-lovers, and the pasts of both men into the story of their courtship. Like Scott Pilgrim, Love and Rockets, and Archie, Wuvable Oaf explores the joys and pains of romantic conquests, set against the backdrop of the San Francisco scene. After decades of comics about boy-loves-girl, Luce finally gives readers of all orientations some insight into man-loves-man. Oaf's silly, sweet, and sometimes sexy stories will win over everyone's heart (Fantagraphics: 262 pages).
