20th Century Boys, Logo

Anatomy of a Page: Lone Wolf and Cub Omnibus Vol. 1 Pg. #672

March 21, 2014 By LoserCityBoss 1 Comment

Comics are a visual medium, but so often criticism of the medium hinges on narrative, ignoring or minimizing the visual storytelling and unique structures that make comics so different from cinema and photography. We’ve decided to change that up with a feature in Loser City that we’re calling anatomy of a page, in which we explore pages […]

ELEVEN BEST COMICS OF 2013, JUST OFF THE TOP OF MY HEAD

January 2, 2014 By Danny Djeljosevic Leave a Comment

I didn’t read everything this year (BATTLING BOY, that Beatles comic, anything Los Hermanos put out because I’m playing hell of catch-up), but here are some things I thought were great. Masterplasty (James Harvey) This was a sci-fi version of Helter Skelter (itself a great 2013 re-release), a comic about surgically changing your appearance and […]
