In "Picture This," writer T. Casey Brennan and artist Dave Sim deliver a sharp, satirical dive into the power of imagery, where advertisers weaponize illustrations to impose rigid stereotypes—until one illustrator’s irreverent wit begins to unravel the very fabric of public identity. With Dave Sim handling both pencils and inks on the interior art and cover, and Sue Hughes lettering the chaos, this 2011 issue from Aardvark-Vanaheim stands as a visually bold, thought-provoking commentary on conformity and the unseen influence of visual culture.
