The Best American Comics

Last updated

The Best American Comics was a yearly anthology of comics in the United States published by Houghton Mifflin from 2006 to 2019 as part of The Best American Series .

Stories were chosen using the same procedure as the other Best American titles, whereby a series editor chose 80–120 candidates from which a guest editor picked about 20 for publication. Most of the runner-up stories were listed in the appendix. The series editors were Anne Elizabeth Moore (2006–07), Jessica Abel & Matt Madden (2008–2013), and Bill Kartalopoulos (2014–2019).

On September 30, 2020, Kartalopoulos announced on Twitter that the series had been discontinued. [1] He also provided a more detailed account of his time working on the series, and its cancellation on his personal website. [2]
