Reviews

"By linking a focus on materiality within texts to larger developments in the comics industry, Kashtan gives us a vivid portrait of a medium in transition. Between Pen and Pixel offers a powerful model for how methodologies focused on materiality might advance the field of comic studies." --Henry Jenkins, author of Convergence Culture: Where Old and New Media Collide

"This book goes beyond just a survey of interesting experiments in comics materiality. It makes a bolder claim for the centrality of comics for book culture as a whole in the digital age." --Greg Smith, author of What Media Classes Really Want to Discuss
