Webcomics: A New Media Canon?

Presiding Officer:
Christopher Kuipers, Indiana University of Pennsylvania

Are there webcomic classics and canons now? How have webcomics reinvented cartoons since McCloud’s Reinventing Comics? What about new frontiers of the infinite canvas—vlogging, crowdsourcing, fanon? Do webcomics complicate the age of late print (e.g., Kickstarter)? Proposals sought on individual webcomics, creators, or general trends in webcomics’ contemporary literary history.

Status:
Open (accepting submissions)
