Hey everyone, I have a couple of opportunities for folks who will be going to SPX: 1. I need a couple of more moderators. 2. I have a panel called Humanizing Medicine. If your work intersects with graphic medicine and you want to be on this panel, reply or DM me directly. Thanks!
Harvey & Joyce's adopted daughter Danielle is trying to raise funds to deal with Pekar's raw archive; basically four storage lockers full of notes, outlines, ideas, etc. Note this is not Pekar's comics per se. Those rights have been tied up in court for years. Long, ugly story. Worth backing.

Our new tag-line from here on out is going to be SOLRAD: actually worth a damn.

TOGETHER & APART by @whitecomics.bsky.social (Fieldmouse Press, 2023): thrives where other biographical art fails, thanks to a refusal to mirror the protagonists’ bodies of work with their personal lives — interiority reigns supreme while art, though consequent, is incidental. Lovely comics.
