"Over a hundred page-long comics from around the world, documenting humanity's retreat into COVID-19 lockdown and imagining our eventual, boisterous reemergence, from the founder of the Brooklyn Comic Arts festival and owner of beloved indie comic shop Desert Island.

Most, astonishingly, came from amateur artists just looking for an outlet to create in the midst of tragedy--for a chance to join the rescue party that leads us out of isolation.
