Coney Island Baby

A single-issue comic from Edition Moderne, Coney Island Baby (2011–present) was created by artist Nine Antico, whose loose, expressive linework captures a slice of life at the iconic New York beachfront. The story follows a young woman navigating the summer crowds, romantic entanglements, and the nostalgic, slightly seedy atmosphere of the amusement park. Antico’s focus on mood and character over plot makes this a distinctive, quiet character study in the European indie-comics tradition.
