Irish Comics

Irish comics and cartoons, and the artists who create them. Ireland has a rich tradition of cartooning, from Percy French's programme illustrations, Jack Butler Yeats' early days drawing comics, and Grace Gifford's caricatures, to satirists like Rowel Friers, Martyn Turner and Ian Knox, to Jim Fitzpatrick's fantasy illustration, to Garth Ennis's work in American comic books, and a thriving underground and webcomics scene.
