A year ago today I gave a lecture on using historical research to inform your costume design. If that's the sort of thing that might be useful to you, you're in luck, because Cartoon Crossroads Columbus recorded it and posted it up!

CXC 2022: Keynote: Queer banned books roundtable, with MariNaomi, Trung Le Nguyen (Trungles) and Maia Kobabe

Over the past year, nearly 1,145 books have been the target of bans from schools, libraries, and bookshops across the U.S, an unprecedented number. And with their ability to tells stories through text and image, comics are right at the center with bans against graphic memoirs like Art Spiegelman’s Maus and Maia Kobabe’s Gender Queer making national headlines. Often, books that tell stories about queerness, race, gender, and history are the target of bans, as is the case for Trung Le Nguyen’s The Magic Fish and MariNaomi’s Life on Earth series. As Kobabe pointed out, book banning often hurts the very groups who are the subject of these works. As e wrote in The Washington Post, “Removing or restricting queer books in libraries and schools is like cutting a lifeline for queer youth.” In this essential panel, Kobabe, Nguyen, and MariNaomi come together to discuss the impact of book banning and why comics are at the center of the discussion yet again. Together, they address cultivating creativity and community through comics during this divisive moment in history.

For the reprint of Heroes of Thantopolis Book 1, I re-drew the artwork that appeared on the inside cover: the Chapter 2 cover art! Old on the left, new on the right. Would you want Helene as a teacher? I don't imagine she'd be a particularly kind teacher - unless you were one of her favorite students.

Get your copy of Book 1 at Cartoon Crossroads Columbus, September 30-October 1st! I'll be with Strange Deer Press at table 112!
