Franke James has a terrific cross-media comic book style.
Founded in 2003, Snarkmarket is a long-running conversation about media, journalism, technology, cities, design, books, music, movies, the future, and the past.
The title, it should be said, is a misnomer. You’ll see.

Thanks! I’ve never been called a ‘cross-media comic book style artist’ before — but I like it! Maybe I’ll use it…
Cheers,
Franke
Hey Franke! In case it wasn’t clear — (I think it was, yeah?) — I meant it as a high, high compliment. I love work that crosses boundaries between illustration, comic book-y rendering, photography, typography, etc. Really nicely done.
Thank you! I am flattered! My visual essays are really fun to put together — glad you see it that way too.
Happy to have drawn the attention of Snarkmarket!
