Gene K Superstar!

Well, UConn Alumni Magazine recognizes it! Jim H. Smith's profile concludes:

Author of dozens of papers about comics, former chair of the International Comic Arts Festival, a lecturer in frequent demand and host of a scholarly Web site, ComicsResearch.org., he is currently writing a guide to “essential graphic novels.” Kannenberg is, by general consensus, one of the world’s leading comics scholars, but he describes himself as “a guy who knows a lot about comics in general, and comics from around the world.”

What an awesome photo -- I would have used it when he visited my class. I still might!

Congrats, Gene!

Holy craniotomy, Gene! That's a fabulous article. And I do like that photo. It's more than just a photo...it's like a tiny poster. Way to go!

Hey...I know him!

I think if he comes to TrinoCon next year he should have a tent sign made with the quote about what a comics genius he is. *eg*

I think he ought to have a word balloon that follows him everywhere...
