The union movement in the United States is in crisis mode thanks to the recent legislation being pushed forward by leaders in government looking to destroy or virtually eliminate public sector employees’ rights to collective bargaining.
Since the 2010 elections, many state governors have made it a priority to propose laws that will strip government employees of any real power they may have in negotiations – vastly weakening the power of their unions in the process.

Last time we met Harold and Kumar, they journeyed across the state of New Jersey in search of the ultimate White Castle burger to satisfy a case of the munchies. Over the course of one, extremely long night, the pair triumphed over adversity, got their burgers and emerged Americas coolest bong-ripping duo since Cheech and Chong.
Now Harold and Kumar are back with a new adventure, except this time the stakes are higher as they hop a fight to Amsterdam – the weed capital of the world – and find themselves imprisoned as suspected terrorists after trying to sneak a smokeless bong on board.
Thank you for your handwritten memoir submission that found its way to our office and which we Google-translated from the Dutch. Unfortunately, we receive so many unsolicited teenage diaries composed in European attics that it is impossible to publish each one. We are passing on your diary with regrets, but herewith offer some constructive criticism.

Camilla d’Errico burst onto the comics scene earlier this decade and doesn’t seem to have slept since. It’s not just that she worked on comics like Burn, Make 5 Wishes, Mightmares and Fairy Tales, The Sky Pirates of Neo Terra, and her own Tanpopo, though that’s certainly a full time career in itself. d’Errico has been an artistic dynamo, moving from one form and one media and one genre to another. Besides comics there’s illustration for a variety of sources, a print done in collaboration with Neil Gaiman, toys, a series of Ride Snowboards, clothing from Hot Topic, not to mention gallery shows around the world.
