Hawking, by Ottaviani and Myrick | Reference List www.gt-labs.com

Here is the complete list of references materials we used to create Hawking (NY: First Second, 2019; ISBN 978-1626720251) As you can see, it’s partially in code, as I’d use abbreviations in the script when a particular scene or image was based on a specific passage or figure, so I could point Leland to e.g. “ABHoT Figure 7.2” and he’d know where to look.

It’s also long, so we had to edit it down and could fit only the most heavily used sources at the end of the book. But now you need not wonder whether we read “On Hawking’s Concession” by John Preskill, or “’s Bedtime Stories.” We read both!
