Missed It: The 2012 YALSA Great Graphic Novels For Teens Lists



The Young Adult Library Services Association has posted its great graphic novels lists: both the 56-item list drawn down from a set of nominees (this year there were 78), and the top ten list that comes from the 56-item list. I completely missed them, but luckily spotted a few publishers crowing about their books being on the list and went looking for the lists themselves. Their top ten list is:

* A Bride's Story Vol. 1, Kaoru Mori (Yen Press)
* Axe Cop Vol. 1, Ethan Nicolle and Malachai Nicolle (Dark Horse)
* Anya's Ghost, Vera Brosgal (First Second)
* Daybreak, Brian Ralph (Drawn And Quarterly)
* Infinite Kung Fu, Kagan McLeod (Top Shelf)
* Scarlet, Brian Michael Benis and Alex Maleev (Marvel/Icon)
* The Influencing Machine, Brooke Gladstone and Josh Neufeld (WW Norton)
* The: The Mighty Avenger Vols. 1-2, Roger Langridge and Chris Samnee (Marvel)
* Wandering Son Vol. 1, Takako Shimura (Fantagraphics)
* Zahra's Paradise, Amir and Khalil (First Second)

All of the books were out in 2011 except for the first Thor volume, which came out in 2010.
