Recent Reads 2024

Welcome to the Recent Reads 2024 post, just for newsletter subscribers!

Here’s where I’ll link to all the comics I can remember reading so you can dig into them yourself, too! For 2024, I’m gonna stick to just October (when I’m starting this) through December, but I’ll be making a 2025 one with all the months included.

I’m really hoping that most of the artists will add their comics to their shops later so I can get more of my picks then! I was very pleased to get seven Co-op members’ comics, too.

These links will disappear at the end of the month when the Fair ends, so be sure to check them out while you still can! If the Internet Archive gets restored before the end of the month, I’ll try to save ’em through there.

Here are all the Cartoonist Cooperative members who have comics in this year’s fair, too!

I’ve been busy reading a ton of NIF submissions for the Co-op– we got 130 comics submitted to us, and we’re slowly but surely making our way through all of them! As of writing this, I’ve read through half of the comics. Here’s what else I’ve managed to squeeze in between the last couple weeks:

Issue 28: December 21

Here’s what I read in November to December! Please look forward to more Recent Reads in January 2025!
