Over the all-too-short summer you likely had any number of distractions to lure you away from your Comics Plus shelf, but we were as busy as ever adding a whole bunch of new comics and manga to our platform every week. While I can’t speak to everyone’s tastes, I literally look at every comic we add to our ever-growing collection, and every week I pick the featured titles that appear in our curated Recent Additions list. I’m always finding a handful of new titles for readers of different ages and interests that stand out for one reason or another, and starting with this inaugural Summer recap, I’ll be spotlighting a handful of them every month.

From mature takes on the superhero stories they may have grown up with, to other popular genres like horror, historical and literary fiction, or memoir — older readers can read all the comics, too!

2022 was another record year for digital circulation in many libraries as the demand for digital content continued unabated. LibraryPass hit a new benchmark of its own, announcing more than one million checkouts of digital comics, graphic novels, and manga in Comics Plus throughout the year. Achieving this milestone in only its third year exclusively serving schools and libraries was thanks to 2,500+ customers in the US and around the world offering their students and patrons unlimited, simultaneous access to a diverse collection of titles. And it was made possible by dozens of library-friendly publisher partners making their titles available to schools and libraries because they truly believe in equitable access.

By reading graphic memoirs and first-person narratives as mentor texts, students can get ideas and inspiration from other writers. They can see how the writers have a clear focus, and a beginning, middle, and end to their stories; how they develop their ideas with engaging details. Most importantly, students can see how the writers use their unique voices when telling their personal stories, helping them find their own voices and share their own stories.
