Why Did We Trust Him?

In Why Did We Trust Him?, Shannon Wheeler turns his satirical eye to the modern political landscape for IDW, launching a single-issue comic in 2020 that dissects the era's trust in leadership. As both the primary artist and a key creative voice, Wheeler delivers a pointed, visual commentary on the gap between public perception and political reality. This standalone work matters as a sharp, timely artifact of its moment, capturing the cynicism and confusion of a polarized electorate through Wheeler's signature, wry cartooning.
