Hogan's Alley, a publication devoted to comic art, is subtitled the magazine of the cartoon arts. It has been published on an irregular schedule since 1994 by Bull Moose Publishing in Atlanta. Covering comic strips, comic books, cartoons and animation, each hefty issue contains at least 144 pages with a square-backed spine. Originally planned as a quarterly, the frequency is closer to that of an annual, with 20 issues published in 22 years.

The editor is Tom Heintjes, who also edits three magazines for the Federal Reserve Bank. The magazine was co-founded by Heintjes and Rick Marschall, former editor of Nemo, the Classic Comics Library. The designer is David Folkman.

Interviewed in 2004. Heintjes gave some background on the magazine's origins:

The scope of the magazine ranges from historical articles to coverage of current comic strips. Contributing writers have included Ron Goulart, R. C. Harvey and Allan Holtz. In issue #12, Holtz examined the early evolution of Sunday comics supplements to the daily comic strip, notably The Importance of Mister Peewee, which ran in Joseph Pulitzer's New York World in 1903-04. In that same issue, R. C. Harvey offered an in-depth profile of cartoonist Dave Breger.

Interview subjects have included Gus Arriola, C. C. Beck and Will Eisner.
