Abstract Never before has graphic storytelling been so prominent or garnered such respect: critics and readers alike agree that contemporary cartoonists are creating some of the most innovative and exciting work in all the arts. For nearly a decade Chute has been sitting down for extensive interviews with the leading figures in comics, and now she offers fans a chance to share her ringside seat. Chute's in-depth discussions reveal a creative community that is richly interconnected yet fiercely independent, its members sharing many interests and approaches while working with wildly different styles and themes.
