Another absolutely badass comic by celebrated cartoonist @andycomics.bsky.social exposing absolute sadist Scott Lively. We let this guy get way too far, and walk away with way too much. We did not "defeat" Scott Lively. He's still out there, and you bet he supports our current administration.

I have a comic up at Tinyview! A Brief History of Traffic Lights, featuring daring gas mask rescues, a fortune made from sewing-machine-oil-based hair products, and a lesson in patent protection.

Back in 2017, when I was working at the Nib, I edited a comic by Lina Ghaibeh about growing up the school system of the Assad family's Syria. It is as powerful now as then, and gives a deep context to how people in Syria feel having shaken off this weight. thenib.com/education-in...

What a week–TGIF! I've got a Brief History Comic up at Tinyview about the pull tabs on beer cans. Go quench your thirst for useless trivia with my silly comics!

I read SPRING RAIN by @andycomics.bsky.social. I loved this autobio comic about a year spent in Lebanon, using the backdrop of political upheaval to explore personal growing up, loneliness, and struggles with depression. A truly affecting and fascinating read.

Tomorrow I’ll be in conversation with Barrack Zailaa Rima about her beautiful new book, Beirut. Friday 10/25 7-9pm at Silver Sprocket, 1018 Valencia St. Rima’s comics are dreamy, haunting and gorgeously rendered. We go way back to Samandal and Irene days. Please come if you’re in the Bay Area!
