Read Yourself Raw

A single-issue anthology from Pantheon, Read Yourself Raw (1987) collects a stark, sophisticated lineup of noir-tinged comics and illustration. The issue is anchored by the distinctive, shadow-drenched work of artist José Muñoz, who collaborates with frequent writer Carlos Sampayo, while also featuring contributions from Eliette Markbein and Steve Guarnaccia. This slim volume stands as a snapshot of late-80s alternative cartooning, offering a raw, literary edge that bridges European and American sensibilities.
