Thanks.

Happy Thanksgiving.

Back in April, when I first conceived of PANDEMIX, Quarantine Comics in the Age of 'Rona, a 56-page anthology to benefit cartoonists in need via The Hero Initiative, I knew immediately what my contribution was going to be. I wanted to acknowledge and celebrate the first responders. The people who kept us safe during a terrifying time of uncertainty. People who put their lives at risk so we didn't have to. People who died saving ours. Unfortunately, it looks like we're going to count on them again as COVID-19 infections rise exponentially across the nation and we enter a second lockdown.

Below is my thanks and respect for our city heroes. Please note that I originally produced my comic for traditional publication. So, forgive the reformatted version. Enjoy.

Thank you.

Winter is coming.

Wear a mask.
