Creator Spotlight: Matthew Blackett
:: Posted by Bryan @ 6/14/2006 05:41:00 AM Comic Book Bin continues its roll-out of Can-Con with a profile of m@b, one of the most "sincere" strips currently produced, according to the Bin (if only comics were like Pumpkin Patches). The whole thing begins with a slight disclaimer:
What makes a creator Canadian?
Is it their passport? The content of their comics? The location of their publisher? Some incredible artists and writers from Canada currently reside in the USA. Do they count? Some Americans currently create comics while living in Canada. Can they be included? Drawn and Quarterly is a Canadian publisher that also puts out books by Americans, while Oni Press is an American publisher that releases some books by Canadians. Where should one draw the line?
For now, I propose that the Creator Spotlight column remain solely the domain of comic creators that (primarily) live and work in Canada, while the Canuck section itself will be the domain for all things related to Canada and comics."
