The Comics Journal #303

The most award-winning, internationally acclaimed comics and graphic novel magazine in the mediumâ€™s history returns to print!
The Comics Journal, which is renowned for its in-depth interviews, comics criticism, and thought-provoking editorials, features Gary Groth in frank and often hilarious discussion with the satirist and childrenâ€™s book author Tomi Ungerer. Ungerer talks about the entire trajectory of his life and career: growing up in France during the Nazi occupation, creating controversial work, and being blacklisted by the American Library Association. This issue, the first in its new twice-a-year format, covers the â€œnew mainstreamâ€ in American comics â€• how the marketplace and overall perception of the medium has drastically shifted since the â€œgraphic novel boomâ€ of the early 2000s and massive hits like Persepolis, Fun Home, and Smile. It also includes sketchbook pages from French-born cartoonist Antoine CossÃ©â€™ an introduction to homoerotic gag cartoons out of the U.S. Navy; andÂ Your Black Friend cartoonist Ben Passmoreâ€™s examination of comics and gentrification. Full-color illustrations throughout.
