MOVIE QUOTE OF THE DAY:
“What do you think this is, Hicks Corners? Some people is too lazy to vote, that's all. They don't like this kind of weather. Some of 'em is sick in bed and can't vote. Maybe a couple of 'em croaked recently. That ain't no reason why Mayor Tillinghast should get cheated out of their support. All we're doing is getting out the vote.”

If you’re having trouble facing the prospect of making your way through #Project2025,
the 900-page blueprint for a second Trump administration drawn up by the conservative #Heritage #Foundation,
a loose-knit consortium of cartoonists has made it a bit easier.

Last week some of the top creators in the comics industry launched "Stop Project 2025",
a free website featuring “highlights” from the plan in comics form.

The effort reflects the concerns that many in the comics community are feeling about the impact of a potential second Trump term
on issues affecting the lives of ordinary Americans.

Stop Project 2025 provides information about the document,
its connections to many once-and-future members of a Trump administration,
and its implications across a range of policies including education,
climate, reproductive freedom, immigration, government administration and more.

“A lot of us were thinking about ways to make a difference,” said comics editor Scott #Dunbier (Act 4 Publishing, IDW).
Dunbier had previously worked with creators on a book to raise funds for Ukraine and saw the potential of comics to shed light on what he called a “heinous document.”

He connected with artist Steve #Lieber over Facebook, and eventually a collective of about 50 people began pitching in scripts, art, production and editorial services.

The list of contributors credited on the site includes best-selling and award-winning creators such as Andrew #Aydin (March),
Denys #Cowan (Milestone comics),
Matt #Fraction (Sex Criminals),
Lilah #Sturges (Lumberjanes, Fables)
and many others, including some who did not want to be listed
