A 12-part comic series published by Oni starting in 2005 and ending in 2008, ''Local'' covered twelve years in the life of Megan McKeenan. Each issue was a stand-alone [[Slice of Life]] story, sometimes with Megan as the main character, sometimes with her only in the background. Written by Brian Wood (''[[DMZ]]'', ''[[Northlanders]]'') and beautifully drawn by Ryan Kelly (''Giant Robot Warriors''), each issue took place in a different city in North America and featured Megan at a different place in her life.
Line 21 ⟶ 22:
Each issue also has an amount of back matter, notes from both Wood and Kelly, including their own soundtracks to each issue. It is a definite must read.
