Overview

Tango is described as “the Australian romance comics anthology”. Each issue features contributions by comic artists living and working in Melbourne and other parts of Australia and New Zealand. The first three issues of Tango were large format publications, inspired by large format anthologies from the United States such as the early issues of RAW

RAW (magazine)

RAW was a comics anthology edited by Art Spiegelman and Françoise Mouly and published by Mouly from 1980 to 1991. It was a flagship publication of the 1980s alternative comics movement, serving as a more intellectual counterpoint to Robert Crumb's visceral Weirdo, which followed squarely in the...

Bernard Caleo is a Melbourne-based Australian comic artist, comic book editor, performer, and presenter. He is the editor of Tango, a comics anthology series which has been published irregularly since 1997. He also runs Cardigan Comics, the publishing company which publishes Tango...

 is the creator and editor of Tango, as well as being a contributor to each issue. Caleo is also a performer, speaker, interviewer, blogger and general promoter of comics and comic talent in Melbourne and more broadly in Australia and New Zealand.

Origins

Spurred by the disappearance of an earlier Australian comic anthology, Fox Comics, Caleo wanted to provide a vehicle for both experienced and new comic artists to demonstrate and develop their talents. The chosen theme of romance is intended to evoke associations with both love and adventure.

Issues

There are currently nine issues of Tango, with the latest issue Tango 9: Love and War published in December 2009.
