Profile
Pyle and Kuper have double identities—illustrators by day, for mainstream publications from Time to the New Yorker, they’ve also broken new ground in books they've labored over for years. Kuper's latest is a semi-autobiographical comic that covers his desperate attempts to lose his virginity and a job penning “Spy vs. Spy” for Mad magazine. Pyle has a debut graphic novel about boys playing war games that suddenly turn serious. Neither book is kids' stuff—they attest to the form's maturity.
