Derf Backderf
Derf Backderf is an award-winning Cleveland artist known for his political cartoons and graphic novels, but he is also a collector of comic art. He knows the field well, and blogs about the history of Jack Kirby, Dr Seuss, and Bill Maudlin, to name a few. In this informal session, Derf will bring a few of his favorites from his collection and tell us about them: why they are important in the field, how he obtained them, and why he loves them.
