Get ready to get sequential as Illustoria presents their first-ever all-comics issue, featuring seventy-two pages entirely dedicated to the comic artform!

"In our twenty-fifth issue, we dip into the immersive world of panel-format storytelling and all the world-building, character-developing, plot-twisting details. Check out interviews with our cover artist, Jillian Tamaki, and other series artists who share how they get ideas (and keep getting ideas) over time. Discover wordless comics, DIY comics, and autobiographical comics about real life. Feeling brave? Gather friends and try performing your own comic. Find all this and much more as you tear through this unforgettable unputdownable issue panel-by-panel."
