TCJ interview excerpt

May 19, 2008 by matt 2 Comments


I’m going back-to-back in the Comics Journal this spring. Following the preview of Drawing Words & Writing Pictures in #289, the new issue features a career-spanning interview with me conducted by poet/cartoonist Gary Sullivan. TCJ has posted a brief excerpt on their website. You can read it here.

Some of the work we discuss:
“Off the Road” from Terrifying Steamboat Stories #3
Odds Off
Sayonara and other Mexico City tales
99 Ways to Tell a Story: Exercises in Style
“U.S. Post Modern Office Homes, Inc.” from Rosetta #2
(and here’s a nice compliment I just found in the Booklist review of that anthology: “an American worthy of greater recognition is Matt Madden, whose story of workplace life is formally rigorous and narratively lucid.”)
Drawing Words & Writing Pictures

Finally, Greg McElhatton has written a nice review of 99 Ways on his website.

    Not to mention my report on Angoulême 2008! Don’t tell me you haven’t read it Matt…

    I’ll read your interview once I receive my comps.

    Take care,

    Stephen.

    It’s too painful to read about Angoulême when I wasn’t able to be there myself!
