Jeff Lemire’s favorite comics of the year

01.02.2010

Jeff Lemire, creator of the fantastically melancholy Essex County dropped a list of his faves for ’09. If you can’t trust a comic auteur of his skill, you can’t trust anybody for this.

(Relevant question: Can you name a great artist in any medium who has/had horrible taste in art from that same medium?)

Jeff Lemire (wunderkind writer/artist of Ghost Stories and Tales from the Farm (probably the best book of 2007)), posted this artwork on his blog.

Nice, right? I love that the big guy is reading Super Spy, another of my favorite releases of 2007.

I’ll be writing a long appreciation of Lemire’s work sometime soon, just as soon as I get a copy of Lost Dogs, his earlier, Xeric-winning book.
