It feels like we are right on the cusp of spring turning into summer here in Toronto (rain all day Saturday, beautiful sunshine Sunday) so I enjoyed R. Kikuo Johnson’s latest cover illustration for The New Yorker. There are so many lovely touches.

I was raking leaves in Toronto last night where it also feels like a lot of folks have discarded masks, so Adrian Tomine‘s latest cover for The New Yorker resonated with me.
The copy of The Loneliness of a Long-Distance Cartoonist propped up against the railing is also a nice touch.

Love & Rockets turns 40 this year, and if you have $400 USD burning a hole in your pocket, Fantagraphics are collecting together bound facsimiles of the original fifty issues in a special eight-volume boxed set. (Although I would settle for a slightly more affordable Love and Rockets #24 t-shirt myself!)
