This is an anthology of short comics fiction, previously appearing in books such as Best American Nonrequired Reading.The creator of 2008�s acclaimed graphic novel The Lagoon � named to many annual critics� lists including Publishers Weekly and USA Today�s Pop Candy � is back with a stunningly designed and packaged collection of some of the most poetic and confident short fiction being produced in comics today. Carr��s elegant short stories read like the gothic, family narratives of Flannery O�Connor or Carson McCullers, but told visually. Poetic rhythms � a coin flip, a circling ferris wheel � are punctuated by elements of melancholy fantasy pushed forward by character-driven, naturalistic dialogue. The stories in Heads Or Tails display a virtuosic breadth of visual styles and color palettes, each in perfect service of the story, and range from experimental one-pagers to short masterpieces like �The Thing About Madeline� (featured in The Best American Comics 2008), to graphic novellas like �The Carnival� (featured in David Sedaris� and Dave Eggers� 2010 Best American Nonrequired Reading, originally published in MOME).
