Comicsography

In the years since The Comic Art of War  was sent to press (in Autumn 2014), military cartooning has flourished on social media and paid-access, subscription, and crowdfunding sites, and digital access to library and museum archives has greatly expanded. Thus, the once somewhat-comprehensive appendix in the book quickly became outdated. This page serves as an addendum to the "guide to artists" and cartoons available in the text.

​

The original appendix from the book is recreated with new and updated entries, starred (✧). Active URLS and available full-texts are hyperlinked.

 

The comicsography has also been expanded to include comics and animations done in consort with military personnel and veterans, through interviews, life writings, or embedded journalism. Some mainstream war comics created by military veterans have also been added. Non-military/war comics by veteran creators are not included in the comicsography, but a running list of veteran creators of other comics art is provided at the end.

 

The distinction made between comics and illustrations is sometimes ambiguous, but efforts  are made to focus on graphic narratives, even if they are single-panel stories - whether humorous or serious. The goal, as it was with The Comic Art of War, is to preserve and promote these voices and their stories.

​

This page is perpetually in-development. If you have suggestions or corrections, please contact me.
