"For this issue of Chimurenga’s pan African gazette, The Chronic, the focus is on graphic stories; comic journalism. Blending illustrations, photography, written analysis, infographics, interviews, letters and more, visual narratives speak of everyday complexities in the Africa in which we live.
Binyavanga Wainaina meets Youssou N’Dour in Dakar, learns to swim in the Atlantic and runs into a foul-mouthed Neneh Cherry.
Michael Jackson makes a come back in Nigeria, where Native Maqari and Biyi Bandele also revise Chinua Achebe‘s Girls at War.
The Chronic also features a special 8-page insert: the lost issue of Hei Voetsek! A reawakening of Zebulon Dread‘s cult, handcrafted periodical featuring graphics by Cape Town’s art collective, Burning Museum.
Produced in Cape Town, Harare, Johannesburg, Nairobi, Lagos, London, Douala, Dakar, Accra, Kigali and Kolkota, and distributed globally, The Chronic seeks to write Africa in the present and into the world at large, as the place in which we live, love and work. - The Chronic"
