Abstract
What can a comic book tell us about urban density? How might a comic represent the multiple relationship between density and the city? What can comics reveal about the life, experience, politics, and geographies of density? This edited comic book is an anthology of six short pieces, all of them showing very different styles of writing and art. It brings together contributors from across the world telling compelling stories of densities ranging from London, Sarajevo and New York, to Mumbai, Jakarta and Lima. The anthology provokes readers to think both about what density of different forms means to them, and what a focus on density might tell us about the experience and nature of the city and urban living.
