The end (of the year) is nigh... and we have now closed the 12th volume of The Comics Grid: Journal of Comics Scholarship.
Please note the journal will not conduct editorial processes between 23 December 2022 and 16 January 2023.

Other Deadlines
The Comics Grid publishes one volume per year, with two issues per volume:
- Winter – open submissions
- Spring/Summer – special collection articles
These publication cycles may be subject to change depending on editorial and peer review workloads.
The journal has no deadlines for open submissions.
Some special collections may have specific deadlines. You will find those in the calls for papers, which we publish in our news section. Other special collections might be ongoing.
We publish all special collection articles as part of the same volume,
but also within a separate collection page. When submitting to a special
collection, mention the name of the collection in a note to the editor.
If you are considering submitting your work for review, we suggest you
familiarise yourself with the journal first. Take a look at our special
collections here. All the volumes published so far are here.
This newsletter was produced in a factory that processes texts so some
typos might have remained. If they did, please be kind and ignore them.
If you have read all the way here, thank you. (No, really. You are one of a kind).
Once again, merry Christmas and happy new year! Take care.
