Giant Days

Over six years and fourteen issues, John Allison’s Giant Days (Boom! Studios) follows three first-year university students—Susan, Esther, and Daisy—as they navigate the chaos of campus life, friendship, and early adulthood. With art by Lissa Treiman and Max Sarin, the series captures the sharp, warm humor of young people figuring out who they are, blending slice-of-life comedy with genuine emotional depth. Its tight, character-driven focus makes it a standout in modern indie comics, beloved for its relatable, witty take on the messiness of growing up.
