There isn’t a doubt in my mind that if the Boys & Girls Club had not been open, I couldn’t have made it this far.” 4 Volunteer Spotlight Board Spotlight Officers: Joshua Rose, pictured below with Kentrel Duncan Andy Mays We’d like to thank the more than 1,471 volunteers who dedicated 12,543 hours (BGCK’s 2017 Youth of the Year), has served as President of community service in 2016.

  • LOCAS: the MAGGIE and HOPEY STORIES by Jaime Hernandez Study Guide Written by Art Baxter
    NACAE National Association of Comics Art Educators STUDY GUIDE: LOCAS: THE MAGGIE AND HOPEY STORIES by Jaime Hernandez Study guide written by Art Baxter Introduction Comic books were in the midst of change by the early 1980s. The Marvel, DC and Archie lines were going through the same tired motions being produced by second and third generation artists and writers who grew up reading the same books they were now creating. Comic book specialty shops were growing in number and a new "non- returnable" distribution system had been created to supply them. This opened the door for publishers who had small print runs, with color covers and black and white interiors, to emerge with an alternative to corporate mainstream comics. These new comics were often a cross between the familiar genres of the mainstream and the personal artistic freedom of underground comics, but sometimes something altogether different would appear. In 1976, Harvey Pekar began self-publishing his annual autobiographical comics collection, American Splendor, with art by R. Crumb and others, from his home in Cleveland, Ohio. Other cartoonists self-published their mainstream- rejected comics, like Cerebus (Dave Sim, 1977) and Elfquest (Wendy & Richard Pini, 1978) to financial and critical success. With proto-graphic novel publisher, Eclipse, mainstream rebels produced explicit versions of their earlier work, such as Sabre (Don McGreggor & Paul Gulacy, 1978) and Stewart the Rat (Steve Gerber & Gene Colan, 1980). Underground comics evolved away from sex and drugs toward maturity in two anthologies, RAW (Art Spiegleman & Francoise Mouly, eds., 1980) and Weirdo (R. Crumb, ed., 1981). Under the Fantagraphics Books imprint, Gary Groth and Kim Thompson began to publish comics which aspired to an artistic quality that lived up to the high standard set forth in the pages of their critical magazine, The Comics Journal.

  • Comics Seized by Canadian Border Officials from 2003–2010
    Comics Seized by Canadian Border Officials from 2003–2010 The Canadian Border Services Agency is known for seizing materials depicting horror, violence, and sexuality, and their scrutiny of comics is on the rise. Any comic, graphic novel, or manga brought into Canada is subject to their searches, whether in print or on electronic devices such as a laptop, cell phone or tablet. Previously, the CBLDF issued an advisory (http://cbldf.org/resources/customs/advisory-crossing-international-borders/) for traveling safely with comic art across international borders. Now, we take a closer look at the situation at the US/Canadian Border. What follows is a list of comics, graphic novels, and manga that have drawn the attention of the Canadian Border Services Agency at the US/Canadian border from 2003 to 2010. Every comic on this list has been seized by the border patrol because it was found to be "suspicious." After review, if the comic is found to be permissible, the comic or the electronic device on which it is carried is eventually returned to its owner and added to the admissible list. Otherwise, the book is added to the prohibited list and banned from crossing the border. Regardless of its ultimate status as either admissible or prohibited, each of the following comics has been confiscated by Canadian Border Services agents and examined. There is no clear rubric that the Canadian Border Services Agency uses to determine what is prohibited and what is admissible. Some of the titles that have aroused the suspicions of the CBSA include Gundam H, Grendel, and even Sailor Moon.

    ABOUT 2019 EXPO RESOURCES VOLUNTEERS SPONSORS PROMOTION CONTACT 2017 Programming 11:30 a.m.–12:30 p.m. Maximalism Jesse Jacobs, Ron Regé, Jr, Lale Westvind, and Marnie Galloway address di¶erent subject matter in their books, but their work expresses a similar horror vacui: all ¸ll the entirety of their pages with intricate detail. And although nature may abhor a vacuum, comics is often described as a combination of poetry and graphic design, a de¸nition that would appear to set it in direct opposition to a maximalist aesthetic. This panel discussion, moderated by Galloway, will address what drives these four artists to work in their distinctive styles and how their approaches a¶ect the kinds of stories that they tell. This panel is sponsored by Busy Beaver. 1:00–2:00 p.m. Panter²: Gary and Olive Panter in conversation Texas-born cartoonist, illustrator, painter, designer, and musician Gary Panter is a child of the 1950s who blossomed under the grow-lamp glare of the psychedelic ’60s, survived underground during the ’70s, and ¸nally made his mark on mainstream culture in the ’80s as head set designer for the TV show Pee-wee’s Playhouse, a job which brought his jagged style and surreal ideas into the homes of America and bagged him two Emmy Awards. Among Panter’s notable comics are Jimbo, Jimbo: Adventures in Paradise, Jimbo’s Inferno, and Facetasm (with Charles Burns). His newest book, Songy of Paradise (Fantagraphics, 2017), is an inspired interpretation of John Milton’s retelling of Satan’s temptation of Jesus.
