A release party for the 25th Anniversary Issue of World War 3 Illustrated is slated for
Thursday October 6th at the Exit Art gallery in New York City. Co-founded by Seth Tobocman
and Peter Kuper, WW3 has become a premiere platform or political art and the latest issue,
World War 3: #36 "Neo Con" does not disappoint.
Edited by Ryan Inzana and Peter Kuper the new release features a wraparound cover by Sue
Coe and articles and comics by "the usual gang of agitators" including Eric Drooker,
Seth Tobocman, Sabrina Jones, Mac Mcgill, Ryan Inzana, James Romberger, Chuck Sperry,
Nicole Shulman, and Spain Rodriguez, who illustrates a nine-page story by Justin Wertham.
Special highlights of the Neo Con issue include Joe Sacco's account as an embedded
journalist in Iraq and Eric Laursen's article on the history of the Neo Cons. For the
first time in its history WW3 includes a color section with a new installment of Peter
Kuper's Richie Bush comics and Penny Allen's War is Hell, a photo comic assembled
from photos taken by an American sgt. in Iraq, with his running commentary. World
War 3 Illustrated #36: Neo Cons is 64 pages with a cover price of $5 and is
available from Top Shelf Productions, FM International, and Diamond Comic Distributors.
