Publisher's Synopsis

Launched at the end of 2017 to universal acclaim, Now continues to showcase the best comics and cartoonists from around the globe. With a focus on short stories, every issue is an entirely self-contained window into the wealth of diversity currently seen in the world of literary cartooning. This sixth includes new and familiar names: from rising international talent such as Keren Katz, Mariana Pita, and Veronika Muchitsch, to acclaimed literary comics stalwarts like Noah Van Sciver, Zohar Lazar, Steven Weissman, and Tim Lane, Now aims to blow the lid off what comics are and can be.

About the Publisher

Fantagraphics Books

Fantagraphics Books

Fantagraphics Books has been a leading proponent of comics as a legitimate form of art and literature since it began publishing the critical trade magazine The Comics Journal in 1976. By the early 1980s, Fantagraphics found itself at the forefront of the burgeoning movement to establish comics as a medium as eloquent and expressive as the more established popular arts of film, literature, poetry, et al. Fantagraphics quickly established a reputation as an advocacy publisher that specialized in seeking out and publishing the kind of innovative work that traditional comics corporations who dealt almost exclusively in super-heroes and fantasy either didn?t know existed or wouldn?t touch: serious, dramatic, historical, journalistic, political, and satirical work by a new generation of alternative cartoonists as well as many artists who gained prominence as part of the seminal underground comix movement of the '60s. Fantagraphics has since gained an international reputation for its literate and audacious editorial standards and its exacting production values.
