Creator Interviews:
Dan Goldman
Dan is a writer and illustrator best known for the work Shooting War. But now he's teamed with journalist Michael Crowley to present the story of 08, a year none of us will soon forget. Political jabs, surges in the polls, flubs, gaffes, in-fighting, personal attacks --- the good, the bad, and the ugly are all here. Goldman talks about recreating this potent year, as well as his independent work in the field in a broad-ranging interview.
