Welcome to part 2 of JOMG’s ASCIIpOrtal launch-day interview with programmer Joe Larson.

Okay, not every wonderful comic – Mouly and Spiegelman have spent a long time trawling through the archives to find the very best examples of 4 decades of children’s comics to make The Toon Treasury something rather wonderful indeed.
