Macdoodle St by Mark Alan Stamaty. $25, 200 pages, published by New York Review Comics

One of the greatest works of comic art ever made, and a testament to the high highs of alt weekly serialized comics. Not only does this look beautiful, it is a beautiful humane saga about creativity, the city, more, told with humor that isn't ironic, but instead it's own unique form. If you haven't read this, you know what to do.
