Introduction: Uncomics

The artists featured in this issue all appeared in C’est Bon Anthology (CBA) #56&57: Uncomics, published by C’est Bon Kultur (CBK), in 2022. CBK’s stated purpose is to support, evolve and disseminate comics with higher artistic ambitions – that is, comics made away from the commercial factory paradigm of the mainstream industry. ‘Un/comics’ was edited by comics artist and researcher Allan Haverholm, who coined the term Uncomics in his master’s thesis to describe comics that are about abstract and nonlinear modes on the periphery of comics.
