Abstract

ABSTRACT: Doctors John, Thierry and Paul planned to record a conversation about the comics theories they had explored in the course of pursuing their respective PhDs, to see whether these were consistent – with plans to co-created a 'verbatim comic' based on the recordings. To keep things manageable each composed five questions, from which two were chosen to answer, for a strict one minute each – with a little chance for comments, questions and responses after. This was still a lot of text to fit into a comic! Each transcribed the questions asked, and of the comic that follows is a result of the subsequent editing and drawing. Thierry passed away in the months following the recording but his self-drawings are re-used here, and his partner Sharon provided a splash image.
