What a fantastic night celebrating the 2026 Thurber Prize for American Humor with our partners at Thurber House and CCAD.

Congratulations to this year’s honorees — Emily Flake, Shalom Auslander, Alison Espach, and Steven Rowley — and thank you for an unforgettable evening celebrating humor, comics, and storytelling.
Congratulations to Jeff Smith on receiving the National Cartoonists Society’s Milton Caniff Lifetime Achievement Award.

We couldn’t be happier to see Jeff honored for his incredible contributions to comics, cartooning, and the creative community as a whole.

From Bone to helping shape CXC into the festival it is today, Jeff’s work has inspired generations of cartoonists and readers alike.

This recognition is deeply deserved, and we’re so proud to celebrate this moment with him.

We’re saddened to hear of the passing of Gib Bickel, founder of The Laughing Ogre and a longtime friend of CXC.

Gib helped shape the comics community in Columbus in ways that will continue to ripple through artists, readers, and fellow retailers for years to come. His presence, generosity, and deep love for the medium made a lasting impact on our festival and the many people who found connection through his work.

We send our condolences to his family, the Laughing Ogre team, and the broader comics community who knew and loved him.

Cartoon Crossroads Columbus (CXC) is a free, citywide comics festival, and this is the perfect chance to introduce someone new as we kick off the road to April 15–18, 2027.

It’s Women’s History Month and today we’re highlighting one of the most enduring voices in comics, Carol Tyler. Carol has spent decades transforming personal history into powerful graphic storytelling. From The Job Thing to You’ll Never Know and Fab 4 Mania, Tyler’s work explores family, memory, grief, and the emotional landscapes that shape our lives.

In this talk from CXC 2025, Tyler discusses her forthcoming graphic memoir The Ephemerata: Shaping the Exquisite Nature of my Grief (Fantagraphics, 2025). The book draws on her own experience with loss to create a deeply intimate and philosophical meditation on grief.

Watch the replay via the link in our Stories and on our YouTube channel.
