Abandoned Cars is Tim Lane’s first collection of graphic short stories, noir- ish narratives that are united by their exploration of the great American mytho- logical drama by way of the desperate and haunted characters that populate its pages. Lane’s characters exist on the margins of society—alienated, floating in the void between hope and despair, confused but introspective. The writing is straightforward, the stories mainstream but told in a pulpy idiom with an existential edge, often in the first person, reminiscent of David Goodis’s or Jim Thompson’s prose, or of films like Pick-Up on South Street or Out of the Past. Visually, Lane’s drawing is in a realistic mode, reminiscent of Charles Burns, that heightens the tension in stories that veer between naturalism on the one hand and the comical, nightmarish, and hallucinatory on the other. Here, American culture is a thrift store and the characters are thrift store junkies living among the clutter. It’s an America depicted as a subdued and haunted Coney Island, made up of lost characters—boozing, brawling, haplessly shooting themselves in the face, and hopping freight trains in search of Elvis.

    Strong Bonds: Child-Animal Relationships in Comics

    Strong Bonds: Child-animal Relationships in Comics This publication an outcome of the COMICS project which has received funding from the European Research Council (ERC) under the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme (grant agreement no. 758502) Couverture : Jinchalo ©Matthew Forsythe. Used by permission. Image courtesy Drawn & Quarterly. The editor and the publisher would like to thank Matthew Forsythe for allowing them to use an image from his graphic novel Jinchalo for the cover. Discussed in detail in Laura Pearson’s chapter in this volume, the image shows the child protagonist, Voguchi, fascinated by and merging with the plant and animal life around her. The image poetically captures this volume’s concerns with disentangling—and re-entangling—the connections between children and animals in comics.
