In this week’s episode of Strip! – the UK’s only weekly radio show about comic books, sequential art and related media – guest presenter Grant Rogers talks to Pulitzer prize winning author Art Spiegelman about his seminal work Maus and the 30th anniversary republication of Breakdowns, his sophomoric collection of underground strips which has now been reprinted in hardback format with a new 30 page autobiographical comic book called Portrait of the artist as a young %@?*!… The interview was recorded and edited by Alex Fitch.
