Creator Spotlight: Classic Backlist & New-to-You Comics

Mining backlist titles for popular creators is like digging for hidden treasure, and surfacing lesser-known creators alongside them is the heart of Readers’ Advisory. Our Creator Spotlight: Classic Backlist & New-to-You Comics list does both, offering a curated combination of popular creators and up-and-comers—all available for unlimited simultaneous access via schools and libraries through Comics Plus.

Graphic Medicine for Schools and Libraries

Graphic Medicine encompasses a broad range of titles and health issues and has become a common way to help young people understand and share how they’re feeling, both mentally and physically. It can also help offset the stigma around concepts like anxiety, depression, and the physical issues created by mental stress. Comics Plus’ collection of Graphic Medicine titles can help students of all ages better articulate their own physical and mental health, and foster empathy for others facing difficult circumstances.
