  • Description: S&S/Gallery 13, Oct. 3 In jagged, acid-toned panels, Ata presents a startling portrait of a young Arab-American man with epilepsy, stymied by doctors who don't believe he's really sick. Metropolitan, Oct. 3 With art as dense and claustrophobic as the paranoid world it covers, the authors explore our much surveilled world and the whistleblowers who seek to make it better. A graphic memoir laments the loss of train travel, and ponders the grip of family, mortality, art, and the human condition, with many other digressions thrown in by Canada's cartooning national treasure. An Arab-American college student struggles to live with epilepsy in this starkly colored and deeply cutting graphic novel. Up-and-coming comic artist Brubaker has a thoroughly modern and hilarious take on the Old Testament tale of paganism, murder, and sex. With a mix of satirist wit and visual verve, Brubaker puts his unique twist on angels, famine, war, and even bear maulings. Valiant Faith and the Future Force by Jody Houser, Barry Kitson, and Stephen Segovia (Dec., trade paper, $9.99, ISBN 978-1-68215-233-1) pushes Faith into a centuries-spanning fight for existence alongside the greatest heroes of the Valiant Universe... past, present, and future. [...]the steady pace of isolated existence is abruptly shattered when a scouting party discovers a mysterious young girl who seems to know more about their home than they do.
