"San Diego Comic-Con blah, blah blah … Preview clip of new Green Lantern movie yadda, yadda, yadda … Sure, all the bloggers are talking a blue streak about a big-deal comics convention in Southern California, and that’s just fine, but there’s a whole world out there beyond San Diego." Thus begins The Comics Journal editor Michael Dean's introduction to TCJ.com's new International Comics feature. Respected correspondents in Argentina, Australia, Italy, The Philippines, Sweden and Turkey will be reporting on their local scenes, with more to be added soon. We're very excited to announce this new globe-spanning initiative.
