Current

Jen Sorensen’s Current is a sharp, single-panel comic series from Adams Street Publishing that has been running since 1990, offering a witty and incisive look at American politics and culture. Written and drawn solely by Sorensen, the series distills complex social issues into clever, often satirical vignettes that have made it a staple of alternative newspaper and online commentary. Its enduring relevance lies in Sorensen’s ability to blend humor with pointed observation, creating a unique voice in political cartooning that remains as timely as its title suggests.
