Melanie Gillman’s Graduation Comic

The immensely talented Melanie Gillman has posted the minicomic created to celebrate graduation from the Center for Cartoon Studies. I’ve loved her work, especially her use of colored pencils, since I stumbled across her Smbitten last year; she’s currently working on a new webcomic called As the Crow Flies.

I was one of those lucky enough to get a print copy of this mini, and I treasure it and its message. I’m thinking that this might be a fun new category of comics to collect, the works that CCS students do about their time there. I have another with that topic, but I’m sure there must be others.
