Joe Kubert: A Busy Man - Publishers Weekly

Joe Kubert: A Busy Man - 7/21/2008 3:54:00 PM - Publishers Weekly: "Though he'll turn 82 later this year, Joe Kubert maintains the schedule of a hungry, young artist. As many as seven days a week, Kubert will go to his School of Cartoon and Graphic Art in New Jersey to either teach a class or work on an overflowing slate of projects.

Talking over the phone from the school recently, Kubert even sounded much younger, his gravelly voice slipping easily into laughter. Which he promptly did after exclaiming, 'Thank God, I'm busy as hell.'


Kubert, who started drawing comics in the late 1930s when he was just into his teens, has recently finished a revival of his classic series Tor, with the first few issues currently on shelves. He's also creating a six-issue anthology series for DC, a second book in the planned Jew Gangster trilogy and a fact-based graphic novel on an early Vietnam battle.
