The Comics Courier, A Comics Criticism Journal [Issue 3] A newspaper-format journal dedicated to in-depth comics criticism edited by Tiffany Babb

I just backed The Comics Courier, A Comics Criticism Journal [Issue 3] on @kickstarter.com www.kickstarter.com/projects/tif...

🤣

This was a fun panel — I recall covering tons of stuff that I’ve never discussed… pre-COPRA dreams and beefs and highs and lows. Glad it was recorded!

I had an incredible weekend at CXC! Had a blast chatting with Michel Fiffe, Frederik Schodt, and the visiting manga artists from Japan. This festival has left my heart full. I'm feeling energized and ready to start making some more comics:)

Nice haul!

Lots of graphic novels spread across a large ottoman.

I must have hit my head on the drive down to Columbus Friday night. This is too much!

Everything is signed by the author except for the Rust Belt Review. I also can't believe I didn't already own a copy of 99 Ways To Tell A Story. #CXC #CXC2025

"I found the whole comic to be a hoot, even if I was probably missing some context, so if you’re up for some ninja mockery I’d say you should give this one a shot."
