Renowned comics writer Paul Gravett has been very supportive of the Graphic Justice project. Those keener-eyed amongst you may have noticed that he is chairing one of the panels at the one-day symposium on 11th September. He has also interviewed me, and if you follow the link below you can read the interview on his website.

Symposium Fully Booked! (+ paper abstracts)
The Graphic Justice One-day Symposium, taking place on 11 September 2013, is now FULLY BOOKED! I have had an excellent level of interest, and I'm very excited to see everyone on the day.
In advance of the event, I have compiled a nice handy collection of the abstracts for all the papers being presented. So, you can get a flavour of the various panels and papers from the comfort of your own home/office well in advance of the Symposium.
The document can be found here.
Although there will be programmes in hard-copy on the day, this more detailed collection will not be available. So, you may want to print your own copy to bring with you if you don't have any portable means of accessing it electronically.

GikII: Law, Technology and Popular Culture... and Comics?
Hello!
This post is not to do with the upcoming Graphic Justice One-Day Symposium, but is about a related project that some of you may be familiar with: GikII. It has been kindly pointed out to me that GikII focuses its interest on the intersections of law, technology, and popular culture, so there may be some fruitful overlap between the two projects. It certainly looks like a thoroughly exciting and engaging project! Check out the CFP for their upcoming September conference taking place in Bournemouth: http://www.gikii.org/?p=129

Why don't we just kill 'em all?
This is just a quick post to give you all a link you may find interesting.
Ever thought about the deathworthiness of criminals? Well, Graphic Justice Research Alliance members Nickie Philips and Staci Strobl have. Here is a very interesting article which they have written for the Wall Street Journal.
Be warned: it contains spoilers for the latest Superman blockbuster Man of Steel.
As an aside, you can now find a link to Philips and Strobl's CrimCast blog on the links page.
