Seth Tobocman, World War 3 Illustrated

Seth Tobocman visits Clocktower Radio to talk about the heady days of 1980, when his magazine of politically charged and innovative comics got started. World War 3 Illustrated was founded by Tobocman and Peter Kuper and is celebrating it's 35th anniversary with an anthology of the last 35 years.

Seth discusses the miasma of comic activity that was taking place at the same time-- Harvey Pekar's American Splendor and Art Speigelman's Raw. He also discusses his activity on the Lower East Side with tenants' rights and the Tompkins Square "riots" which Corwin remembers well from his days at the neighborhood public school, PS 70.
