Hotwire

A short-lived but memorable three-issue series from Fantagraphics in the mid-2000s, Hotwire collected the raw, idiosyncratic work of cartoonists Michael Kupperman, Glenn Head, and Tim Lane. Each issue delivered a distinct, often surreal blend of underground comix energy and literary storytelling, showcasing the artists' signature styles in a compact anthology format. It stands as a snapshot of a particular moment in alternative comics, where established and emerging voices could experiment freely without the constraints of a shared universe.
