The Magazine of Comics News and Criticism. In this issue: Spring's in full swing, and TCJ celebrates by bringing you a cover interview with Vertigo artist and Scary Godmother creator Jill Thompson!

And as always, this issue is rounded out with the award-winning news, indispensable criticism and informative columns you would expect from the only insightful magazine about comics art.
