Book 11: "It Won't Always Be Like This" by #MalakaGharib
Her second graphic memoir, it explores her Arabic and Muslim side. A bit more angsty given it was Gharib's teenaged years (and it was the 90s). I love her openness in relating messy family stuff, and cringe at the same insecurity I felt from wanting to fit in with dominant (American) culture.
The colors and panel structure in this book are more varied. It's exciting to see this cartoonist grow.
#WebComicTalk Q3: Who influenced your art or writing style of your webcomic?
#Seattle has some incredible comics artists. I especially love #SimonHanselmann’s COVID comics collected in “Crisis Zone”. Simon put out that shit weekly in the middle of lockdown and was able to pack so much into 10 panels. #BrettHamil really skewers City politics well in 9 panels with simple drawings.
#MalakaGharib for not being too precious and her zinester’s heart, #JonMcNaught for silence and mood.
