Publisher's note

The historic magazine about comics, now available to the book trade
"The Comics Journal" is the award-winning print magazine and website exploring the widest range of cartooning--newspaper strips, alternative and mainstream graphic novels, international works, editorial cartoons, webcomics, and much more--in the world. Treating the medium as an art form, "TCJ" is the magazine of record for one of the fastest-growing categories in the book industry, as well as an area of increasing academic interest. "TCJ" is the perfect magazine for the widening spectrum of discerning and sophisticated readers who take home such books as "Persepolis, Fun Home" and "The Complete Peanuts," Ever since its debut in 1976, "The Comics Journal" has promoted a wider range of comics than any magazine in the field, and bookstores that carry "The Comics Journal" routinely find out that the lively, in-depth magazine guides customers to new discoveries.
In TCJ #293: "The Comics Journal" interviews Zap artist S. Clay Wilson, best known for his panoramas of sex and violence involving lesbian bikers, zombie pirates and a Checkered Demon. Another mastermind of unsavory comics, Jhonen Vasquez, talks about creating the animated Invader Zim and the goth-comics fave Johnny the Homicidal Maniac, and provides a glimpse of projects on the horizon. Alex Robinson, the Harvey-and-Eisner-winning cartoonist, will discuss his graphic novels "Box Office Poison, Tricked" and "Too Cool to Be Forgotten," And a special back-to-school section will feature a gallery of undiscovered potential comics masterpieces by students from the Center for Cartoon Studies.
