I am a comic book maker, publisher and educator. When MAUS appeared as a book in 1986 (which had been a remarkable year for comics already), it changed comics, and what people thought was appropriate content for comics.
I enjoy discussing MAUS and exploring it as one of the most significant texts about one of the most terrible events of the 20th century. MAUS uses the oldest form of writing – picture writing – to describe a dark thing from humanity’s past. Is that appropriate? I think so.
