Over the post 5 years, he has been prolific in sharing deeply personal and thoughtful comics. His first big book is The Gulf, which came out from Tundra Books in 2024. It tells the story of a difficult life transition in a beautifully poignant way that showcases place and experience in a fantastic way. It’s a YA book that doesn’t feel like it’s trying hard to YA, it’s just the way the story fits organically. The past 4 years he has also been putting out his Blind Alley comic strip, a meditative work that captures the messiness of childhood moments of strangeness, learning and finding your own voice. Lastly is the first big book, Mutt, which is an anthology that ties into other work or takes space to try different things that fit into his wider narrative. I think Adam is a terrific cartoonist and am excited for whatever he decides to do. I seem him continuing to take his work in different directions and find how the story beats in comics can be moved and moving.</p> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><a href="https://www.inkstuds.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/FrontCover-scaled.jpg"><img decoding="async" width="1024" height="914" src="https://www.inkstuds.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/FrontCover-1024x914.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-6189" srcset="https://www.inkstuds.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/FrontCover-1024x914.jpg 1024w, https://www.inkstuds.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/FrontCover-300x268.jpg 300w, https://www.inkstuds.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/FrontCover-768x685.jpg 768w, https://www.inkstuds.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/FrontCover-1536x1371.jpg 1536w, https://www.inkstuds.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/FrontCover-2048x1828.jpg 2048w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></a></figure> <p class="wp-block-paragraph">This podcast is brought to you thanks to support from the Canada Council for the Arts.</p> <p class="wp-block-paragraph">If you would like to send comics for me to check out, please mail to.

Katie’s latest work, <a href="https://www.fantagraphics.com/collections/katie-skelly/products/heaven" data-type="link" data-id="https://www.fantagraphics.com/collections/katie-skelly/products/heaven">Heaven</a>, is a fantastic exploration of life, friendships and chaos. Her latest work feels very personal in a lot of ways, exploring a very awkward point in a young woman’s life. In some ways, it’s a coming of age comic, but it completely avoids any of the YA trappings and stays honest to her voice and comic work. </p> <p class="wp-block-paragraph">We also discuss Katie’s fantastic Viscere anthologies. I was really blown away by the depth of the work in those collections. They provide a great snapshot of contemporary cartoonists making work on difficult subjects in an engaging and challenging way. </p> <p class="wp-block-paragraph">Katie also has a new <a href="https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/katieskelly/bad-girl-tarot-ii">Bad Girl Tarot deck </a>out which is in the last stages of a Kickstarter campaign. </p> <p class="wp-block-paragraph">This podcast is brought to you thanks to support from the Canada Council for the Arts.</p> <p class="wp-block-paragraph">If you would like to send comics for me to check out, please mail to.

I haven’t really been keeping up on new cartoonists and thankfully the grant supporting Inkstuds has allowed me to bring on folks to help me see new work I should be more aware. One of the first suggestions was Cam Collins. Cam’s work is really fascinating to me. It sits in unique place where he is creating a really conceptual comic world. His work is spread between comics, comics that take place in comics and his video games. I really appreciate how he is pushing himself creatively to take his work in different directions, be from a whole other world but also feeling uniquely personal. </p> <p class="wp-block-paragraph">This podcast is brought to you thanks to support from the Canada Council for the Arts. </p> <p class="wp-block-paragraph">If you would like to send comics for me to check out, please mail to.
