Best Comics of 2015: Comics Not Published in 2015

It’s always difficult keeping up with new titles while trying to catch up on comics you’ve missed  from previous years. Huge gaps remain in my comics reading, some of which I attempted to correct this year. Plus, there are always a few books from recent years that demand your attention. So here are the books I enjoyed that were not published in 2015:

I hope you’ll find something of interest in the list below. Happy reading!

Jonathan Case Interviewed on The Comics Alternative

  

Derek and I had the great pleasure to interview Jonathan Case recently about his new graphic novel from Dark Horse called The New Deal. You can hear that interview here, where we discuss not only Case’s new book, but also the award-winning true crime graphic novel Green River Killer: A True Detective Story with art by Case and written by Jeff Jensen. The book has just been reissued in trade paperback. Hope you’ll give us a listen!

The 2 Guys Review New Comics from Ethan Young, Jeff Lemire and Michael DeForge

It’s rare that Derek and I talk on The Comics Alternative Podcast about comics we don’t like, but it may be rarer still for us to talk about three comics that we really, really liked. I can safely say that all three of the titles we discussed on the most recent episode of the podcast are all very good. I hope you’ll check out the show and the comics themselves.

Comics discussed:

Nanjing: The Burning City – Ethan Young (Dark Horse)

Plutona #1 – Jeff Lemire, Emi Lenox, Jordie Bellaire (Image)

Lose # 7 – Michael DeForge (Koyama)
