> About This Book
> Analyzing the way that recent works of graphic narrative use the comics
> form to engage with the “problem” of reproduction, Shiamin Kwa’s *Perfect
> Copies* reminds us that the mode of production and the manner in which we
> perceive comics are often quite similar to the stories they tell. *Perfect
> Copies* considers the dual notions of reproduction, mechanical as well as
> biological, andexplores how comics are works of reproduction that embed
> questions about the nature of reproduction itself. Through close readings
> of the comics *My Favorite Thing Is Monsters *by Emil Ferris,* The Black
> Project* by Gareth Brookes, *The Generous Bosom* series by Conor
> Stechschulte, *Sabrina* by Nick Drnaso, and *Panther *by Brecht Evens, *Perfect
> Copies *shows how these comics makers push the limits of different ideas
> of “reproduction” in strikingly different ways. Kwa suggests that reading
> and thinking about books like these, that push us to engage with these
> complicated questions teaches us how to become better readers.
