    • Hickmania #1: The Nightly News (W/ Zack Quaintance)

      Hello and welcome to Comic Book Herald’s Hickmania, a series running through 2022 where we’ll be reading and analyzing the creator-owned works of writer Jonathan Hickman, from his debut The Nightly News through to his most recent output. We’ll be reading one creator-owned work a month through 2022, and each month I’ll release a new analysis with a new guest discussing the comic!

      Today we’re talking The Nightly News, and I’m joined by Zack Quaintance of Comics Bookcase. We’ll analyze the work in depth, so expect spoilers! Topics today include:

      • How does Hickman’s comics debut hold up 15 years later?
      • How does Hickman use design and infographics to invigorate a cynical, violent, often muddled story?
      • Does a comic about violence against the media work in 2022? How has the changing cultural landscape changed those implications?
      • The Nightly News is:

        Everything: Jonathan Hickman
