Some sad news. Pioneering comic artist Jack Katz (b. 1927) has passed away. I never got to meet Jack, but I was lucky enough to get to know him through his work, now preserved in the research archives at Rice University. In March, we opened a modest exhibition dedicated to his life and work. Jack was too ill to travel but he got to see photos and videos of the installation. If you’d like to see some of Jack’s work and learn more about him, the exhibition is up through August 10 at the Moody Center for the Arts.
