The new Nexus Graphica is up at SF Site. This time I discuss comics that have NOT been collected.
| Quote: |
| Given the fact that Barnes & Noble and Borders stores offer extensive graphic novel selections and the existence of countless collections including seemingly limited interest oddities such as Peter Porker the Spectacular Spider-Ham, American Comic Group’s forgettable 1960s super heroes Nemesis and Magicman, and Fantagraphics’ two volumes of the wonderfully subversive works of Fletcher Hanks, one might think everything of note ever published has been compiled into graphic novel format. Remarkably, many influential and popular works remain uncollected. |
I go on to discuss several uncollected series that deserve to appear in book format.
This column emereged out of some discussions with Alan J. Porter and hopefully will lead to a new RevSF feature on uncollected works.
