Hold Me!

In the early 1960s, Random House published this single-issue comic by the celebrated cartoonist Jules Feiffer, a sharp and witty meditation on modern romance and urban anxiety. Feiffer’s signature loose, expressive linework and acerbic humor animate a brief but resonant story about the push-and-pull of intimacy. As a standalone artifact from a master of the form, Hold Me! captures a moment when comics were expanding into sophisticated, literary territory.
