Faces of creators


“I consider Graphic NYC, the upcoming book project that www.NycGraphicNovelists.com is based off of, to be a kind of ‘New Comics Journalism’, combining New Journalism with comics history, and Seth’s lush photography. I’ve been ready to bring a little something new to comics journalism for a while, and this is it.”

For some months now, photographer Seth Kushner and comics journalist Christopher Irving have been crafting portraiture of New York based comics creators. The book looks to be stunning not only for the sweep of its coverage, but for the sheer beauty of the images.

I'll need to track down a copy of the book, but in the mean time, enjoy some of Kushner's photography within.
