This month, we’re returning to my Creative Conversations series! In these episodes, I talk to people in various creative fields making things today who were greatly inspired by anime & manga, and are using that inspiration today to make their own cool things. This time, we’re talking to comic artist, illustrator, and comic author Abby Denson! A longtime manga reader, Abby’s been making comics since her self-published days, and continues that DIY spirit with her latest series Kitty Sweet Tooth with Japanese artist Utomaru. Listen as we discuss her ‘90s zine roots, how BL inspired one of her early comics, and what it was like to table at Comiket in ‘97, along with answering your questions!
