TCJ #297 | The Hooded Utilitarian

The new Comics Journal is out, with a long review by Bill of Danica Novgorodoff’s Slow Storm, a short review by Bill of Comic Book Tattoo (“Why did this book happen? Tori Amos knows Neil Gaiman. Next question.”) and a short review by me of Carol Lay’s “The Big Skinny,” which is one of the more vicious things I’ve written recently. Also interviews with Mort Walker (which I have to admit I don’t really care about) and a special comics section of the works of Thomas Rowlandson (which should be great.) Also looking forward to Shaenon Garrity’s review of Black Jack and an article on comic art in Kenya…so check it out.

I wish I read TCJ, just for that review of Slow Storm. I read that not too long ago, and found it pretty unremarkable; I couldn’t muster up enough enthusiasm to write a review. But I would still be at least somewhat interested to read what others had to say about it…

Ah, you should pick it up! It lets me feed the cat.
