    1st printing. Cover by Marc Bell. Fresh off the success of Can't We Talk About Something More Pleasant?, New Yorker cartoonist Roz Chast picks the best graphic pieces of the year. It showcases the work of both established and up-and-coming contributors and highlights both fiction and nonfiction from graphic novels, pamphlet comics, newspapers, magazines, minicomics, and the Web to make a collection that is "full of varied, provocative feats of cartooning" (The Comics Journal). Hardcover, 352 pages, PC/PB&W.
