Join us in the Canzani Auditorium for an unforgettable conversation with one of the most original voices in animation and comics today. Vasquez is best known for creating the cult-classic Nickelodeon series Invader Zim, a groundbreaking show that blended sci-fi, satire, and dark humor into an unforgettable visual style. He is also the mind behind the influential alternative comic Johnny the Homicidal Maniac, which sparked spin-offs like Squee!, Fillerbunny, and I Feel Sick—all of which have earned devoted fanbases over the years.
In addition to his work as a cartoonist, Vasquez is a producer, writer, director, and voice actor, known for pushing creative boundaries and cultivating unique, often subversive worlds. Operating under aliases like Mr. Scolex and Chancre Scolex, he has carved out a distinct voice that resonates across generations of fans.
Jhonen will be interviewed by M.S. Harkness, a memoir cartoonist from Columbus, Ohio.
