I'm really excited that this amazing collection of short comics about migration that I helped edit will be out in October from U of Toronto Press. Cover art by the great Jonathon Dalton.

I just received my copies of my new book on Chester Brown—this was a fun one to write!

It can be ordered here: www.upress.state.ms.us/Books/C/Ches...

Congrats!

If you're an academic working on any aspect of comics and gender/sexuality, the two book series I edit are both open for submissions—so get in touch if you have an idea for a book!

You can see the existing titles here: www.routledge.com/Research-in-... and here: www.routledge.com/Routledge-Fo...

It's not that hard! :-)

Also, this is why you pay indexers instead of doing it yourself! I would never have thought to index this, but now it seems crucial to the book.

This was a fun book to write!

Just received the index for my forthcoming book "Chester Brown," which was expertly prepared by @baindex.org, and was delighted to see this entry:

It's not often that you get to send two book manuscripts off on the same day, but I've just submitted the final proofs for "Chester Brown," out in April from @upmississippi.bsky.social, & the revisions for "Crossing Lines: Comics about Human Migration," out sometime next year from U of Toronto P 🎉

There's also the companion series for shorter "Focus" books: www.routledge.com/Routledge-Fo...

I'd love to be in that starter pack too, Jared! Lots of work in comics studies, of course, but also two books on the literary history of Chicago.
