In this issue, Gary Groth conducts a career-spanning interview with Y:
The Last Man comics artist Pia Guerra about her turn to editorial
cartooning and future projects. John Jennings explores the vision behind
the graphic imprint Megascope, devoted to "rediscovering powerful
speculative work by and about people of color." Jennie S. Law interviews
Civil Rights activists Jennifer Lawson and Courtland Cox about their
ingenious strategies -- comics pamphlets about gaining political power,
going undercover, mass meetings -- to register voters in Lowndes County
circa 1965. Nicknamed "Bloody Lowndes," 80% of its population was Black,
yet only two Black people were registered to vote. Also: a gallery of
Frank Leet's one-panel cartoons illustrating Don Marquis's (Archy and
Mehitabel) verse, a conversation with Alex Graham about self-publishing
a 400-page graphic novel, a Rob Guillory (Chew, Farmhand)
sketchbook, an original comic by Meg O'Shea, and more.
