A fascinating snapshot of the comics industry in 1979, The Comics Journal #47 dives into the era’s pressing concerns with sharp, insightful commentary. From Marvel’s new anti-fraud measures to the rise of UK-produced strips and shifting retail practices, this issue captures the business side of comics with a rare blend of wit and precision. Written by John Dakin and illustrated with distinctive flair by Grass Green and Reuben Pharms—inked by Green and Will Blyberg—this issue’s cover, by Dennis Fujitake, perfectly frames its sharp-eyed look at the medium’s evolving landscape.
