Join alternative cartoonists Simon Hanselmann (Crisis Zone) andNathan Cowdry (Crash Site) for a friendly chat about their respective bodies of work. Their comics share many common themes: anthropomorphised animals, violence done to and by undergarments, drug-fueled escapades, and the value of loyalty, friendship and lust… er, love! We meant love! Organized by Fantagraphics and hosted by Simon Hanselmann and Nathan Cowdry, this installment of Art Out Loud Online will occur live on the Society of Illustrators instagram, @soi128.

In celebration of his upcoming book of collected drawings, Coping Skills, cartoonist John Cuneo (known for his New Yorker covers, illustrations, and a prodigious output of NSFW drawings) gives us a glimpse into his unique creative process with a virtual live drawing session. He’s joined in conversation by the equally talented and acclaimed illustrator Joe Ciardiello. Register here.
