This administration is committing Watergate level crimes multiple times per weekβand those are the ones we know about. Itβs crazy to think about what else will come out after.
Itβs absolutely essential these criminals are held responsible for their crimes. We must end elite impunity.

I'm so grateful for this new Amazon reader review of my graphic novel Nick Pope!

An opinion that makes you a fringe radical in this country is that the life of a person who is not an American citizen is not an abstraction, and is worth just as much as that of an American citizen

The video of a United States Senator joining the violent removal of U.S. marine from a hearing and hideously breaking his arm in a door is an example of what has been unleashed in this country. Theyβre tapping in to get in on the violence.
And then he bragged about it on X later.

We killed 85 schoolgirls. We are not the good guys.
John Lewis, in costume as himself on Bloody Sunday, speaking at SDCC in 2015. For the record, this was his ideaβ he was into the nature of cosplay at comic cons!
John Lewis meeting my daughter in 2015, an experience she still remembers vividly.
John Lewis crowd surfing on the set of Stephen Colbertβs show!
Andrew Aydin, John Lewis, and myself at the 2016 Eisner Awards.
Thinking lovingly of my friend, collaborator, and hero John Lewisβ who wouldβve been 86 years old today. Transformed by our years together, and by his trust in us to help communicate his experiences to new generations in the ongoing struggle to deliver the still-incomplete promises of democracy. π
She never lived to see this moment, but itβs worth remembering that none of this would have happened without Virginia Giuffre.
She had the courage to speak out against power and privilege when it was just her word against Andrewβs.
Thanks to her, justice & accountability may finally have its day.
I love this, Matt!

The first season much more than the second!
RIP Reverend Jesse Jackson. I give respect to him - and his 1988 presidential campaign - in my upcoming graphic novel Nick Pope: Summer of '88, when Nick meets with Don, his art mentor. (Art by Raymond Klecker.) #jessejackson #graphicnovel
