The Comics Journal #298

Lotsa good interviews in this issue... For me though, the meat of the issue is the wealth of daily Skippy strips by Percy Crosby reproduced in the gallery section. --Chris Mautner"

All my exploration of the Moon/Ba axis came out of reading their pretty great Comics Journal interview in [#298] . I love it when an interview is so well-done that it convinces me to sample writers and artists whose work I haven't read before. --Alan David Doane"

[The Trevor Von Eeden interview] is scandalous and provocative... [R.C. Harvey's "Comicopia" column] is both thoughtful and insightful, the kind of exceptional writing that would normally earn a magazine about comic books an Eisner Award....Grade: A-. --Leroy Douresseaux"
