May 31, 2017

Five long years marked — young English cartoonist and illustrator Lucie Ebrey finished up her daily diary strip, with an extra-long rumination on what it’s all meant. What does it feel like saying goodbye to an avatar you’ve lived behind for five years? I don’t know, but ...

What’s been happening in comics? Our Kat Overland, editor of small press reviews here at WWAC, is quoted in the NYT’s report on America Chavez; a Zora Neal Hurston biography upset (which our Brenda reviewed here) comes quick on the heels of Island #15 (who should draw who, and how? ...

Shindo: Returning to the Scene of the Review

March 13, 2017

The first time I reviewed Saso Akira’s Shindo I was a third of the way through it and uncomfortably conflicted. Crunchyroll files this title as a romance, which is how I found it. As I read on, it became clear that the main characters were a boy in his late teens and a girl who was ...

A Study in Pink: Cartooning Sherlock Queerly (At Last)

October 3, 2016

Interview with Mangaka: The Fast & Furious Game of Drawing Comics

April 29, 2015

Drawing games are awesome. They’re one of the few games I can get most of my friends and family who aren’t into board games to play with me. They are all also big fans of Taboo, and I’m a big fan of geekery. Now there’s a tabletop game that will combine all of the ...
