Popular Culture Review
' The list of successful non-superheroic comic books is long and varied and their cultural
worth remains to be determined; however, besides the already mentioned
Transmetropolitan, which is doubtlessly deserving of scholarly attention, we can point
out the clever adaptation of Richard Stark’s Parker series by Darwyn Cooke and the
slightly surrealistic Chew by John Layman and Rob Guillory, winner of the 2010 Eisner
Award as equally worth of canonical consideration.
