Chartwell Manor: A Comics Memoir

In 2023, Fantagraphics published Chartwell Manor: A Comics Memoir, a single-issue work by Glenn Head. This unflinching graphic memoir confronts the author's traumatic experiences at a brutal New Jersey boarding school, using the comics medium to excavate memory and reckon with the past. Head's raw, expressive art and unsparing storytelling make this a powerful and singular entry in the canon of autobiographical comics.
