Article: Graphic Justice - Interview with Thom Giddens
Posted: August 27, 2013

Comics and the Law might seem like unlikely bedfellows but once you start thinking about them, they are more closely entangled than you might expect. Within legal academia there is growing interest in these overlapping fields, for example in Justice Framed: Law in Comics and Graphic Novels in Vol 16 of Law Text Culture from the University of Wollongong, Australia, available open access here. And next month in London, Dr Thomas Giddens, Lecturer in Law at St Mary’s University College, is organising Graphic Justice, a one-day symposium on the intersection of comics and graphic fiction with the concerns of law and justice on Wednesday September 11th 2013. Demand has been high and this free conference is already fully booked, but you can follow the related Graphic Justice Blog. I will be chairing one of the opening panel sessions and decided to interview Thom to find out more about this innovative conference. Read my new Article here…
