21 hours ago ago from BIG OTHER
Comic creator Will Eisner ’s 1985 analysis of his own medium, Comics & Sequential Art , was an important step in freeing a long marginalized and ancient medium.

The earlier tendency of 1970’s underground comic artists to spell their medium “comix” was a similar gesture. In his book, Eisner considers comics not in terms of film ...

Ah, the eternal question. So DC’s going to be putting out original graphic novel material. Not exactly big news all by itself. They’ve done it before, recently even.

Before writing a review of Craig Yoe's upcoming volume, THE ART OF DITKO, I should--in the interest of full disclosure--remind one and all that I am a member of I.T.C.H., Yoe's International Team of Cartoon Historians and, in fact, in future volumes from IDW's YoeBooks imprint, I'm actually listed as a "Media Associate" to Yoe Studios. I did NOT, however, have anything to do with THE ART OF DITKO. That said, it's good. A nicely designed ...
