In early 2021 we met with Carol Tyler over Zoom to discuss her comics, her participation in the underground comix community, and her forthcoming work, The Ephemerata: Shaping the Exquisite Nature of My Grief. Tyler shared her experiences making Fab 4 Mania: A Beatles Obsession and the Concert of a Lifetime as well as Soldier's Heart: The Campaign to Understand My WWII Veteran Father : a Daughter's Memoir while we communed over our love of comics and how the form is able to capture distinct experiences of trauma and grief, while making a good story. In our era filled with grief and loss, comics memoir persists as a medium that depicts such human feelings through image and text, while allowing us to find optimism in the fragile beauty of our world
