In the interests of brevity, I&#8217;m limiting myself to sequential art series or standalone titles being published in the US for the first time in 2010 and significant reissues.

		<description><![CDATA[Way back in February, I attended a workshop taught by Nancy Pearl on readers&#8217; advisory. For those you not up on library lingo, readers&#8217; advisory is the art of connecting readers with books, whether fiction or nonfiction.

		<description><![CDATA[This week I&#8217;ve been rereading Neil Gaiman&#8217;s Sandman, a project I plan to continue as soon as I recover from my case of post-Thanksgiving sloth. Right now I&#8217;m up to volume 3 (Dream Country).
I first read Sandman in early 2004. It was one of the first works of sequential art that I&#8217;d ever read seriously. [...]]]></description>
