Comics, and beyond

Dear Comics Fans,

Zeszyty Komiksowe, a Polish magazine of comics critique, study and review, will be publishing an issue tentatively entitled Comics, and beyond, entirely devoted to experimental comics, comics in new media, and boundary zones between comics and other forms of art.

We wish to include in this issue a variety of articles related to this subject matter. We are interested in experiments on many different levels of comics art - in graphics, form, narration, storyline etc. We would like to cover the history of experimental comics, its present, and future. We wish to publish reviews of the most important and / or interesting experimental comics. We will discuss the definition of comics art, and trace its recent evolution due to influences of technology and culture.

All of this material will be accompanied by a selection of intriguing experimental, borderline comics.

The deadline for submitting articles for publication is the end of April of this year. Comics can be submitted later (in May). We are currently aiming at publishing this issue in June or July. At the moment, we are only planning an edition in Polish, with an abstract in English.

Zeszyty Komiksowe is a magazine created on volunteer basis, we are therefore unable to offer compensation for articles we publish. However, every author will receive a complimentary free copy of the magazine - along with international recognition, or course!

If you are interested in this project, or if you know someone who is or might be, please contact us at the following e-mail address: redakcja@zeszytykomiksowe.org.

Best regards,

Michał Błażejczyk, Editor in Chief
