Beg the Question

Beg the Question, a one-shot from Fantagraphics in 2002, is a standalone comic that distills a single, potent premise into a tight, self-contained story. While it has no ongoing narrative, its existence as a single issue speaks to the publisher's tradition of allowing creators to explore focused, unconventional ideas outside the constraints of a series. This comic matters as a compact example of Fantagraphics' willingness to publish singular, artist-driven works that prioritize concept over continuity.
