Here Come the Lovejoys

Bruce McCorkindale's Here Come the Lovejoys (1993–1998, Fantagraphics) is a six-issue slice-of-life comic that follows the daily absurdities and quiet dramas of the Lovejoy family—Mildred, Jenny, and Frank. McCorkindale wrote and drew the entire run, crafting a warm, offbeat portrait of domestic life with a distinctly indie-comics sensibility. Though short-lived, the series stands as a charming example of 1990s alternative comics' focus on character-driven storytelling over superhero spectacle.
