Unlovable Vol. 3 by Esther Pearl Watson http://www.fantagraphics.com/unlovable3 412-page two-color 5.75" x 5.75" hardcover • $29.99 ISBN: 978-1-60699-737-6 Summer vacation is here and Tammy Pierce is back with more sometimes ordinary, often humiliating, occasionally poignant, and usually hilarious exploits! Her hopes, dreams, agonies, and defeats are brought to vivid, comedic life by Watson's lovingly grotesque drawings, filled with all the eighties essentials — too much mascara, leg warmers with heels, and huge hair, etc. — as well as timeless teen concerns like acne, dandruff, and the opposite sex (or same sex, in some cases). Unlovable addresses the mysteries of high school through Tammy's naivete; girls and women in particular will find much that resonates, but men will also relate to Unlovable's universal humor and loser cast of characters. Tammy's life isn't pretty, but it is endlessly endearing and hilarious. "Esther's consistently original, hilarious and heart-felt work evokes the travails of puberty with painful accuracy. After perusing Unlovable Vol. 3 we immediately broke out in zits and had clumsy beginner sex." -- Megan Mullally and Nick Offerman "Tammy's enchanting smile and dazzling eyes are a gift of grace from Esther Watson." -- Pendleton Ward, creator of Adventure Time "Unlovable is the great teen comic tragedy of our time!" -- Matt Groening
