The graphic novel Justice Warriors brings absurdism and politics to the cyberpunk genre

 

In 2013, award-winning political cartoonist Matt Bors founded the website The Nib, dedicated to comics journalism.  After a decade of publishing non-fiction comics from around the globe, Matt is saying goodbye to The Nib.

S.W. Conser talks with Matt about the history of The Nib, and then welcomes Ben Clarkson to the show.  Ben is an animator and illustrator who has teamed up with Matt to create Justice Warriors, a comics series that blends cyberpunk, social satire, and absurdism.
