New York Times Magazine Goes All Comics for Its Latest Issue

A first for the magazine

While The New York Times Magazine’s New York issue is a regular, annual occurrence, the way in which editors went about it this year is a novelty. The graphic novel may be an established genre, but graphic newsmagazine, essentially what the Times has turned itself into for the issue, is less familiar territory.

The main portion of the issue is comprised of 11 comics inspired by 12 favorite stories from the Metro section. The intro explaining the decision to transform the stories into comics is itself in comic form.
