PR: SPX Announces World Premiere of Married to Comics at the AFI Silver Theatre



Hi Michael


Small Press Expo is proud to announce the sponsorship of the World Premiere of Married To Comics, which will be held at the AFI Silver Theatre and Cultural Center on Friday, September 8, at 7PM.


Married to Comics, by veteran documentarian John Kinhart, is the story of graphic novelist Carol Tyler and her husband, the ground-breaking and influential cartoonist Justin Green, who passed away last year.


The documentary offers a rare glimpse into the life and art of two giants of autobiographical comics, who are also married. Laying their personal lives to bare in comics, including the intimate details of their troubled marriage, the two of them pioneered and set the bar for one of comics' most important genres.


There will be on-screen appearances by famed cartoonists Chris Ware, Art Spiegelman, Phoebe Gloeckner and Denis Kitchen, along with many others.


Following the screening, there will be a conversation between SPX fav Carol Tyler, John Kinhart and Gary Groth of Fantagraphics, the publisher of Carol Tyler's award winning graphic novels.


Get AFI Ticket Information  

A full press kit with further information is available on John Kinhart's web site.


The screening of Married to Comics is part of SPX 2023, which will be held September 9-10, with events throughout the D.C. area in the days leading up to the show. More information on SPX 2023 can be found here.

That darn Frazz

Listen, my children, and you shall hear the truth [Frazz letter; online as Listen, and you shall hear the truth]

Barney Gorin, Gaithersburg

Washington Post July 29 2023: A17.

Something that makes me sad is our population's ignorance of our nation's history. It makes me even sadder when that ignorance is spread nationwide in the "Frazz" comic strip.

On July 4, Caulfield began the strip with "Today we celebrate summer while we also commemorate basically starting a war." Perhaps as an 8-year-old, he should be forgiven that our educational system is failing, but why does Frazz not correct him?

Simple fact: The small battle that began the Revolutionary War occurred "on the 18th of April in '75," or more than a year before July 4, 1776, when a group of brave men chose to add their names to an explanation of why the war — and by then it was a full-scale war — was being fought.

We celebrate that explanation, the courage of the men who signed that truly revolutionary document, and the sacrifices of the thousands of others who fought and suffered and died to separate the 13 Colonies from Britain. Were we to celebrate "basically starting a war," we would do so on April 18.

Flugennock's Latest'n'Greatest: "A Strong Primary Challenge"


From DC's anarchist cartoonist

"A Strong Primary Challenge"
http://sinkers.org/stage/?p=3666

Well, kiddies, for those of you following the little Democracy™ game, 
it's no secret that DNC voters are about as enthusiastic over Joe 
Biden next year as they'd be over having to eat glass. So, for all 
those desperate Dems who can't seem to bust out of the electoral 
prison, the idea of a primary challenge sounds made of awesome.

So, who do they get — a fresh, bold progressive insurgent in the 
Bernie Sanders mold? Nahh, hell no, man — they get a xenophobic 
antivax Kennedy spawn and a bougie self-help guru who's the "spiritual 
adviser" to Oprah. OPRAH, f'crissake. Hell, man, if that's not a prime 
qualification for the White House, I'd like to know what is.

Hello, Second Trump Administration.
