The Comics Journal #305

Plot

This issue of the award-winning magazine shines a light on how comics creators are affected by chronic disease, disability, and our nation's health care system.

This issue also features a document that is significant not only in terms of comics history ― but American history, as well. Created by the civil rights organization SNCC (Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee) and the Black Panther Party in 1967, this hand-printed zine is a report about a black community in Alabama that attempted to take back their voting rights in their local elections. There is also a profile on cartoonist Kevin Huizenga (Ganges), and much more. Full-color illustrations throughout.
