"Talk-fest" according to Simon Barrett 'Il Penseroso'. More journalism than scholarship*, these interviews were garnered over ten years. Aside from the last two (which gain the third star)Chute's ingratiating, over-eager presence tends to dominate. If you just want to hear cartoonists speak, given that there's overlap (Clowes, Gloeckner, Kominsky-Crumb, Ware) I'd recommend Andrea Juno's Dangerous Drawings instead: Ted Rall's Talk-fest More journalism than scholarship*, these interviews were garnered over ten years.

Chute’s subjects run the gamut of contemporary comics practice, from underground pioneers like Art Spiegelman and Lynda Barry, to the analytic work of Scott McCloud, the journalism of Joe Sacco, and the extended narratives of Alison Bechdel, Charles Burns, and more. They reflect on their experience and innovations, the influence of peers and mentors, the reception of their art and the growth of critical attention, and the crucial place of print amid the e
