About this Collection

This volume, part of the annual Best American Comics series, gathers a selection of the year's most notable comic strips, graphic novel excerpts, and alternative comics. Edited by guest editor Harvey Pekar, the 2006 edition features contributions from a diverse range of artists and writers, including works by Chris Ware, Marjane Satrapi, and R. Crumb, showcasing the breadth of contemporary comics storytelling.

"The Amazing Life of Onion Jack" appears in The Best American Comics #2006, a curated anthology showcasing standout works from the year’s best cartoonists. With a distinctive visual style shaped by Lilli Carré’s cover art—pencils and inks both by her—the issue opens with a stark, deliberate layout that sets a quiet, introspective tone before the stories begin.
