Comicoz

Hullo! I'm Nat Karmichael and I am an Australian comic book publisher (usually trading under the name of Comicoz). I have self-published many comics and comic-related books since the 1970s (some locally, some nationally, and yes even internationally). I am presently a member of the Australian Cartoonists Association, a national cartooning collective that was founded in 1924. (Ask me about joining!) I edited their journal Inkspot for fourteen issues (from Issues #72 to #85) and, for the first time in its history was able to keep it to a quarterly time-schedule. I was also on their committee for seven years (until the end of 2022), including a short stint as Deputy President. I was also Lead Judge in the Ledger of Honour Awards (a sub-section of the Ledger Awards, now the Comics Arts Awards of Australia) until mid-2022. I am passionate about the local comic medium, its past history, and its potential for the future. I like to support our local artists and cartoonists, and just love sharing Australian comic stories with the world. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions about comic publishing; I am only too willing to help.
