The Comics Journal #300
“The only widely read and serious publication of comic-book criticism.” (Jonathan Ross - The Times [London])“The 300th issue ofThe Comics Journalis soon to hit the stands, and the magazine everyone in comics loves to hate rattles on, chugging and sputtering and picking up disreputable beardy guys like a Toonerville Trolley of spite.... In someInglourious Basterds­-like alternate history, the 1990s ended with the twisted faces of Kim Thompson and Gary Groth hovering, laughing maniacally, over the charred and bullet-riddled corpse ofWizardmagazine.” (Shaenon K. Garrity - comiXology)“Comics journalism is mostly an oxymoron, butThe Comics Journal, on the eve of its 300th issue, is a scholarly, intellectual publication.... [F]or intelligent discussion of current and past graphic storytelling and its creator... this is indeed an oasis of comics journalism.” (Richard Pachter - The Miami Herald)“[A] fascinating collection of creator-chats as industry tyros and giants come together to interview, share, bitch and generally shoot the breeze about graphic narrative: a tactic that makes this the most compelling read of the year for anyone truly interested in what we all do and why.” (Win Wiacek - Now Read This!)
