I have had the good fortune of meeting a number of incredible artists as I worked on this project. In fact, most of these people are more than artists. They are critics, commentators and scholars in their own right (see my note on false distinctions here). While I was unable to interview all of them (tight budget), their work both inside and outside of the “mainstream” (or “Eurostream” according to Yumy Odom) inspired me to keep the fires burning on this independent project. I have included links to their pages below. This BY NO MEANS an exhaustive list. It would take years to develop complete catalog of the work of these talented men and women. In fact, blacksuperhero.com and blackcomix are much better resources for those interested in learning more about these artists. I simply offer attention to those that I have been fortunate enough to meet along the way. Enjoy!
