Eisner Interviews: Benjamin Herzberg
Bob Andelman's ambitious series of on-line interviews with various Will Eisner fans, peers, and students in support of his book
A Spirited Life moves onto the late cartoonist's collaborator for
The Plot (French version pictured) and
Fagin the Jew, Benjamin Herzberg. There's a lot of interesting back and forth about Eisner's relationship to European comics, Herzberg's reaction to some of Gary Groth's writing on Eisner, and the nature of the work Herzberg did for Eisner on each of the two books. There's also mention of a completed 30-page introduction to
Fagin that was scrapped that one hopes might see the light of day at some future date.
