SUMMARY:New York\, NY: Steve Brodner (Living and Dying in America: A Daily Chronicle 2020-2022) in conversation with Rick Meyerowitz at Society of Illustrators
DESCRIPTION:Don’t miss Steve Brodner in conversation with Rick Meyerowitz at the Society of Illustrators to celebrate the release of Living and Dying in America: A Daily Chronicle 2020-2022! Every day\, late at night or early in the morning\, from March 26\, 2020 to January 1\, 2022\, the political cartoonist and illustrator Steve Brodner would get to work. In those midnight hours\, he would review the day’s reportage\, sit down at his drawing board\, and memorialize a singular person or event that played a role\, willingly or unwillingly\, in shaping that day. Taken as a whole\, Living & Dying in America is a chronicle of those who died and those who honorably served the living — as well as an indictment of those institutions and political figures who betrayed the public trust. It is a searing and essential moral document\, written and drawn on a daily basis with feverish intensity by one of the great forces of American cartooning. \nGet your tickets here!

SUMMARY:New York\, NY: Johnny Ryan (Barely Human) Book Signing at Forbidden Planet
DESCRIPTION:Hey NYC\, head to Forbidden Planet for Johnny Ryan’s book signing–he’ll also have original art for sale! \nAbout Barely Human: \nThe cartoons that keep getting Johnny Ryan banned from Instagram\, collected for the first time as one big ol’ exquisitely gross picture book! \nJohnny Ryan’s compulsion to flout any and all accepted standards of decency in his humor and cartoons have not only garnered him a tremendous following — Instagram has banned him multiple times with hundreds of posts scrubbed from those accounts. (He can be found\, currently\, at @johnnyryanjohnnyryan1). Guess what? We’ve got ’em! Over 500 of the grossest\, crudest\, most surrealistic\, scatological\, and of course hilarious cartoons you’ll ever see\, presented with loving care in this gorgeous\, oversized collection with fine art paper. They may not meet with your approval\, but you will laugh. Crafted throughout the pandemic and posted daily\, these cartoons helped keep both the author and hundreds of thousands of others sane during the past two years. From conventional gag cartoons to pieces decidedly unconventional and almost Dadaist in their humor\, these are some of the most visually imaginative — and comedically brilliant — single-panel cartoons ever conceived\, whether in the service of boner jokes or sheer visual absurdism.

SUMMARY:Hanover\, NH: Liniers (Macanudo: Welcome to Elsewhere) Book Signing at Still North Books & Bar
DESCRIPTION:Don’t miss a book signing with Liniers (Ricardo Siri) for his new collection\, Macanudo: Welcome to Elsewhere! He’ll be at Still North Books & Bar on September 29th at 7:00 pm. \n  \nAbout the book: \nIn the spirit of Calvin & Hobbes\, Mutts\, and Krazy Kat\, Liniers (Ricardo Siri) uses a shifting cast of children\, talking animals\, imaginary monsters\, sensitive robots\, occasional elves\, and anthropomorphized objects to perform gags\, philosophize\, muse on nature\, and engage in surreal\, artistic flights of fancy. With delicate\, calligraphic pen work and understated watercolors\, the comic skips lightly from style to style and subject to subject\, as Liniers allows his imagination and observational humor free reign. Jokes about domestic life\, imagined scenarios of historical figures\, Cthulu showing up to Tinder dates\, characters simply enjoying a pastoral sunset\, the puncturing of pop-culture stalwarts: Macanudo is a boundless canvas for its author’s humane and delightfully off-kilter view of the world\, in a way few comic strips have ever even attempted. \nBeginning in 2002 in Buenos Aires\, Macanudo steadily gained popularity around the world\, appearing in US newspapers since 2018. Welcome to Elsewhere is the first of a series of volumes collecting Liniers’ groundbreaking strip.
