I was speaking at some arts festivals in Italy for a couple of weeks during September, and when I got back I felt like I’d missed about a year’s worth of news, which inspired this cartoon (though obviously this rundown of the past month is meant to be more impressionistic than comprehensive). Readers with long memories may remember this character from a 2002 cartoon, except then he was the Man From Five Years in the Past, because things move a lot more quickly now.
If you enjoy my desperate, flailing attempts to keep up with the relentless deluge of terrible news, please consider joining Sparky’s List! And remember, if you missed out on my sold-out Kickstarter career compilation, the second edition is now available from IDW Publishing.
