I just received my author copies of this exciting volume. It contains 8 short comics about migration by a super-talented group of cartoonists, who worked with academics to create the narratives, and the resulting book exhibits an incredibly diverse approach to comics-making.

It's not often that you get to send two book manuscripts off on the same day, but I've just submitted the final proofs for "Chester Brown," out in April from @upmississippi.bsky.social, & the revisions for "Crossing Lines: Comics about Human Migration," out sometime next year from U of Toronto P 🎉
