Description
The Comics Journal #304 features an in-depth conversation between Gary Groth and Tasmanian cartoonist Simon Hanselmann. Hanselmann discusses his critically acclaimed webcomic, which has been collected into books such as Megahex and Bad Gateway. This issue also explores the labor and economics issues facing the comics industry, including organizing a comics union, work-for-hire contracts, and how comic conventions can better serve creators. The Journal's hallmark candor shines through in these discussions. Other highlights of this issue include an exclusive look at an unfinished graphic novel by Eisner and Geisel Award winner Geoffrey Hayes, as well as works by Brazilian cartoonist Laura Lannes and a reconsideration of the comics canon by Skin Horse cartoonist Shaenon K. Garrity.
