Comics: A Cultural Journey

Cartoonist Guillaume Singelin joins the show to talk about one of my comics of the year, his graphic novel Frontier, and his career in comics. Singelin discusses his origins as a comic reader, France's relationship with comics, the works he originally connected with, what he originally wanted to do, his love animation, where inspiration comes from, working by himself or with others, creating French comics vs. American ones, the origins of Frontier, developing ideas, his process for creating Frontier, his cute characters, drawing environments, the political nature of the story, how the characters push each other, what he wants to do next, and more.
