Now #9

Fantagraphics' Now anthology series continues with this ninth installment, a vibrant showcase of contemporary alternative comics talent. The cover bursts with a dense, kaleidoscopic grid of illustrated panels — figures, creatures, interiors, and abstract forms all jostling together in a riot of color — perfectly signaling the eclectic, anything-goes spirit inside. At $12.99, it's a generous portal into the diverse voices shaping comics in 2020.
