Israel is illegally destroying homes and entire villages in Lebanon. One of them belonged to the family of Fayrouz Saad, an American citizen and career public servant. It is absurd that any American can see their taxpayer dollars go to the destruction of their own home.

LOS ANGELES!! I'll be at @comicartsla.bsky.social this weekend at table 63A! And on Sunday I'll be moderating a panel about the grind of graphic novels with @kaneicaruslynch.bsky.social @charmgardens.com and @andycomics.bsky.social!
Style imitation of Randy Newman's single cover of I LOVE LA with the author in cartoon form. Text says: COMIC ARTS L.A. / DEC 14-15 / TABLE 63ACALA The Realities of Making Graphic Novels
What does it actually take to create a full-length graphic novel? This panel offers an honest look at the day-to-day realities behind long-form comics work. Moderated by Kane Lynch and Mary Shyne, a group of graphic novelists will discuss their creative routines, the hurdles they've faced, and the strategies that helped them push through to the finish line.

Featuring Karen Czap, Andy Warner, Kane Lynch, and Mary Shyne.

New book that speaks to the present moment in the Middle East even as it is unfolding: my friend Yazan al-Saadi’s “Lebanon is Burning” just came out. Collects comic journalism from the last decade about Syria, Lebanon, Yemen & Palestine. I edited many of these pieces when they appeared & blurbed it
Cover of Yazan al-Saadi's Lebanon is BurningPicture of Bashar al-Assad on a bloody throne asking when the next uprising will beBack cover blurb by Andy Warner: "Al-Saadi's stories of human struggle and unfinished uprisings are masterfully drawn by the best comic artists from Lebanon, Sudan and Egypt.
