Thirteen Going on Eighteen is a massive 336 page hardcover collecting one of the seminal "teen" comics of the 1960s. Each comic is a darkly hilarious look at the social maneuverings and betrayals of the teen set. John Stanley's stripped down approach perfectly captures the fever pitch of the time. He creates what would otherwise be a teenage sit-com and turns it into an anguished character study. Along with
Melvin Monster and
Nancy, this volume showcases the genius of this comics pioneer.
