Science Comics: Frogs: Awesome Amphibians
Liz Prince (Tomboy)’s loose, cartoony style is a perfect match for Frogs: Awesome Amphibians. This collection of fascinating facts about frogs is the latest in the Science Comics line. Fran has just moved to a house in the country. She discovers a pond in the nearby woods, where a helpful tadpole takes her to Amphibian Academy to correct her assumption that a tadpole is a fish. There, she learns all kinds of interesting information about frogs and related creatures, including [...]

Buzzing
Graphic novels are wonderful vehicles for showing what it’s like to have a particular medical condition. When well-done, they show us what it’s like to live another kind of life, to put ourselves in someone else’s situation and understand their feelings. But also, the visual medium allows for nifty metaphors for certain conditions. Take, for example, Buzzing, about a 12-year-old who has obsessive-compulsive disorder. Isaac’s intrusive thoughts are shown as bees, buzzing around his head and saying terrible things to [...]

Choose Your Own Adventure: Forecast From Stonehenge
I had fond memories of the Choose Your Own Adventure books from childhood, so I was curious how well the stories translated to a comic. Not too bad, it turns out. Choose Your Own Adventure: Forecast From Stonehenge feels like what I remember — a weird collection of endings, some of which kill you or are otherwise unpleasant, a few of which end positively, some of which are surprisingly non-specific. The narrative logic is all over the place, but this [...]

Monster Cats Volume 1
The author of Yokai Cats, featuring Japanese demons as felines, takes the concept to an area more familiar to American readers. Monster Cats, by Pandania, is an adorable set of short (four-panel) comic strips about a wide range of European monster types, if they were cats. The creatures include vampires, dragons, mummies, brownie spirits (a set of kittens), gargoyles, an invisible cat, and the giant white yeti. There are lots more, though. The gags are very soft and comfortable, playing [...]

The Comic Book Guide to Growing Food
The Comic Book Guide to Growing Food was immensely successful — as soon as I finished it, I went to the local farmers’ market and bought a tomato plant. (We’ll see if I’m able to grow and harvest it!) Written by Joseph Tychonievich, art by Liz Anna Kozik, and published by Ten Speed Press, this guide to, as the subtitle has it, “step-by-step vegetable gardening for everyone” is very approachable and friendly. It contains a huge amount of information, but [...]

The Ruthless Commander and His Reincarnated Warhorse
I would never have read The Ruthless Commander and His Reincarnated Warhorse if it weren’t for my local comic club. There’s a member who’s very knowledgeable about manga, especially BL, and her recommendations are often very entertaining. This one, story by Sakashima, art by Nomoto Narita, and published by KUMA (the BL imprint of Denpa), sounded wacky, so I gave it a try. Sadly, it wasn’t wacky enough. The first chapter sets out the premise. A young man reincarnated as [...]

Victory Point
I was going to write an essay titled “Where are the comics for me, an adult woman?” If you don’t like horror and you’ve already read all the superheroes you ever need and you’re not six years old (and reading comics where food-named animals learn lessons about friendship), what comics are aimed at you? I no longer need to expand on that idea, because I’ve found a book that answers the question. Owen D. Pomery’s Victory Point is beautiful and [...]
