Vol. 1, by Sina Grace, Siobhan Keenan & Cathy Le](https://www.loveinpanels.com/comics/ghosted-in-la) [fa icon="calendar'] May 6, 2020 9:45:00 AM / by [Suzanne](https://www.loveinpanels.com/comics/author/suzanne) posted in [review](https://www.loveinpanels.com/comics/topic/review) [[fa icon="comment"] 0 Comments](https://www.loveinpanels.com/comics/ghosted-in-la#comments-listing) I really needed something cute when I picked up Ghosted in L.A., and I'm happy to say that it delivered. Jewish college freshman Daphne has just followed her high school boyfriend to L.A. for school... only for him to break up with her right after they get there. Her roommate is a grouch and she's having a hard time making friends. One night, in a moment reminiscent of Beauty & the Beast, she falls onto the gate of an abandoned haunted mansion and it opens for her.

Unlike the previous two books, *[They/Them Pronouns](https://www.loveinpanels.com/comics/quick-and-easy-guide-to-they-them-pronouns)* and *[Queer and Trans Identities](https://www.loveinpanels.com/comics/queer-and-trans-identities)*, this book seems more targeted toward disabled readers rather than an informative guide for abled readers. Topics include defining disability, consent, rejection, modifications for various disabilities and, largely, communication.

Maia Kobabe (e, em, eir pronouns) describes eir life from an unconventional childhood spent partly off the grid and homeschooled to eir current mid-twenties as a gender queer person making comics and still on a quest of self-discovery. It's not an easy read and no one should go into it expecting answers, a universal experience applicable to all gender-questioning individuals or a straightforward narrative.

I knew it! If you want to see what I loved the last two years, here are my lists from 2017 and 2018. Standard disclaimer that I didn't read all that many comics this year and there's no possible way I could have read everything. And this list is totally subjective. That said, I'd love to hear your faves from 2019!

And for good reason, as any medium requires an on-ramp for new readers and particularly younger readers. Hook 'em early and they'll read be readers for life and all that. The two lines are being merged into one for all younger readers now with titles for teens under the general DC banner, but that's a[ story for another time](https://nerdist.com/article/dc-comics-cancels-vertigo-zoom-ink/).

Though her name isn't on the cover, Sarah Stern's colors set the Autumn/Halloween tone for *Pumpkinheads* and the book wouldn't be the same without her.

Seriously, you take a look at that cover and you'll get exactly what you expect. A queer witch and werewolf who were friends as kids are reunited as young adults to defeat a few bad guys and fall (back) in love. Both love interests are Asian and queer. Nova is a Hard of Hearing witch living with her two grandmas following the death of her parents. (Older queer women FTW!) Tam is a non-binary werewolf who has run away from an abusive situation only to end up in a magical forest fighting a demon horse.
