Synopsis
Since its inception in 2005, Mome has served as a comics McSweeney's. Whether exposing new talent like Eleanor Davis (author of the recent Stinky by Toon Books); featuring short stories by contemporary graphic novelists like Dash Shaw (The Bottomless Belly Button); bringing the work of international superstars like David B. (Epileptic) to American audiences; or introducing the work of legends like Gilbert Shelton (The Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers) to a new generation of readers, Mome is the most acclaimed, accessible, frequent, and reasonably priced anthology on the market despite it's high production values and mostly color format. Upcoming issues include, in addition to those named above: Jonathan Bennett, Sophie Crumb, Kurt Wolfgang, Ray Fenwick, Al Columbia, Laura Park, and other surprises.

Review
“It must be said, of all the art comix anthologies, MOME is probably the most perfect distillation. Sometimes evolution works.”
- Heidi MacDonald, Publishers Weekly
“If the world of alt-comics feels appealing but intimidatingly vast (what doesn’t these days), MOME is the perfect place to start.... The volume is thick, slick and printed in what looks like Technicolor. An anthology is only as good as the sensibilities of those who compile it, of course, so it’s worth noting that a subscription of MOME equals four issues per year of work culled from the depths by an outfit that not only has keen vision in such matters, but also a stake in finding the very best. What’s not to trust?”
- Molly Young, We Love You So
“Sometimes... an issue manages to hit perfectly, striking the ideal balance between new blood and Fantagraphics mainstays. It’s a standard that Volume 16 meets and exceeds, making for the best addition to the quarterly series in recent memory. ... Taken together, it’s a vital and vibrant sign of life for both the series and the indie comics community at large.”
- Brian Heater, The Daily Cross Hatch
