For this week’s repost of a classic review, I shared a piece I wrote about Kevin Cannon’s (@kevincannon.bsky.social) graphic novel Far Arden way back in 2009. It’s a really good book!

My desk setup hasn’t changed much since I started designing drama posters for my high school thirty years ago: ink, paper, light, and some music.
