Media Release -- The Museum of Comic and Cartoon Art is pleased to announce that we will be sponsoring a team for this year's AIDS Walk New York, which will occur in and around Central Park on May 20th. As a supporter of the comic book and cartoon arts, we are sure you are aware of the tremendous toll HIV/AIDS has taken on the artistic community, and we feel our support of this annual event is the least we can do to stand in solidarity with our colleagues who have been personally affected by this ongoing health crisis.

Media Release -- How did a charismatic young president elected in an atmosphere of optimism and expectation lead the United States to the brink of revolution? From a chance encounter in the early 1980s to the Democratic primaries of 2007–08, syndicated columnist and political cartoonist Ted Rall was one of the first to size up Barack Obama as we know him now: conservative, risk-averse and tone-deaf. In The Book of O(bama), Rall revisits the rapid rise and dizzying fall of Obama—and the emergence of the Tea Party and Occupy movements—and draws a startling conclusion: We the People weren't lied to. We lied to ourselves, both about Obama and the two-party system. We voted when we ought to have revolted.

Media Release -- MoCCA (the Museum of Comic and Cartoon Art) 594 Broadway, Suite 401 (btwn. Houston and Prince) New York, NY 10012, presents an exhibition of artworks by Bob Kessel. The show on May 17, 2012 at 6 pm is titled "ARTWORKS ASSEMBLE!" and features art inspired by comicbook super-heroes like Thor, Ironman, Captain America, Hulk, Batman, Superman, Spiderman and many more. The show primarily consists of prints on paper roughly 3 by 3 feet square, or should I say in many cases, diamond shaped. The art, much like comicbooks, is made out of black lines, in this case, straight lines, some razor thin, some massively thick, surrounding primary colors of red, blue and yellow. To describe Bob Kessel's art in simple terms, his work is… simple.

Walking Dead #97
Image Comics
Kirkman, Adlard & Rathburn

Walking Dead has a pattern and it has been this way for quite some time. The characters find a level of comfort before they get blindsided with confrontation and death. Then the book picks up the pieces and slowly builds to the next crisis. This issue does something we have not seen within that cycle before because for once, the main group, are the ones that appear to be causing the trouble. That's making a lot of assumptions in the early stages of the arc, but it at least provides the general setup for this particular issue and storyline. It's a very good issue because Kirkman toys with the reader with this reversal concept, all the while still managing to show the reader that all is not what it appears to be stacked up to be. It's as solid a read as ever and provides an excellent jump-on point for a newer reader.
