Abraham Cruzvillegas and I sat down to discuss portability in comics, comix and Mexican historietas on the occasion of Abraham’s exhibition La Señora de las Nueces at Galerie Chantal Crousel, Paris. Some of the comics journals and historietas we discussed were Paquito grande, Pepín, Rarotonga, Chanoc, Kalimán, La Familia Burrón, Memin Pinguín, Love and Rockets and Little Nemo, but also El Libro Vaquero, Lágrimas Risas y Amor and other poverty exploitation comics like Así Soy, ¡¿Y qué!?
Fun times!
