About the series
A gentle, surrealist fantasy from Fantagraphics, Wake Up, Sleepyhead! (2021–present) follows a young girl’s dreamlike journey to wake a sleeping sun. The single-issue comic, created by the acclaimed team of writer/artist Derf Backderf and colorist Susan Daigle-Leach, uses lush, painterly art to explore themes of imagination and responsibility. Its quiet, lyrical storytelling and striking visuals make it a standout in contemporary all-ages comics.
