Ashlie D. Stevens:
In March, Special Counsel Robert Mueller submitted the “Report on the Investigation into Russian Interference in the 2016 Presidential Election” to Attorney General William Barr. There had been a tremendous amount of speculation about its contents and what it would reveal about President Donald Trump and his relationship with the Russian government. The 448-page document, which became known as the Mueller Report, was released to the public about a month later.
But in the nearly six months since, it’s unclear how many people (including, as Politico reported in July, key politicians) have actually read it. And I get it — it’s a complex document, that alternates between dry and impenetrable.
So cartoonist Shannon Wheeler, with some assistance, is making it into a graphic novel.
Interviewer Ashlie D. Stevens, at Salon, continues:
I spoke with Wheeler about the novel, its creation, and how he is dealing with the onslaught of Trump-related news throughout the book’s finalization.
Check out the interview and an exclusive sneak preview.
Barbara Slate (Angel Love, Yuppies From Hell) is also doing one. Seven days to go on Kickstarter.
