L ike every year I drafted an end-of-year newsletter round-up for The Comics Grid this year. 2022 was our 12th year and therefore our 12th volume. I’d like to personally thank everyone involved in the production of the Grid: without everyone’s participation nothing would have been possible. For personal preservation purposes I have copied and pasted below the text from the newsletter.

I am very happy to announce the publication of The Comics Grid’s latest special collection, out now in technicolour open access.
