Graphic Biographical Fiction

This special collection examines a variety of graphic works depicting the lives of "real" people, connecting to the genre of auto/biofiction. The authors explore questions of self-insertion and self-representation, conflating subject and artistic output, as well as the levels of fictionalisation.

This collection will be published in an ongoing basis as the accepted articles become ready.

Edited by Dr Nancy Pedri (Memorial University of Newfoundland), Maria Juko (Independent Researcher) and the editorial team.
