Comic Publisher Turning Mueller Report Into Graphic Novel
Editor Justin Eisinger says illustrating the controversial report is “the easiest way to get people to actually read it.”

I have to admit that our having to turn to comics to get Americans to read something so important makes me a bit crazy. That said, if it works, I'll eat my words--gladly.

Justin Eisinger, who’s editing the book, believes comic illustrations are the key to drawing more eyeballs to the report’s findings.

“This really is the easiest way to get people to actually read it,” he told HuffPost.

Artist Shannon Wheeler, who is doing the book with journalist Steve Duin, said he was surprised by how “readable” Mueller’s report actually is — and says real-life characters like President Donald Trump, former Attorney General Jeff Sessions and former Trump adviser Steve Bannon are “straight out of Dick Tracy.”

Wheeler promises a combination of factual information (there will be footnotes referencing the report throughout the book) and a lot of real-life hilarity.

“The part of the report where Trump learns about the investigation and freaks out, saying ‘I’m fucked!’ It makes me laugh every time,” Wheeler told HuffPost.

5. There is a huge difference between comic books and graphic novels.

I’m a firm believer in all forms of education. It’s no different than learning history through cinema. It’s still a teaching tool.

10. I have enjoyed political cartoons forever. The original snark.

I read a lot of books. Not a huge fan of graphic novels, even though my 8 year old grandson is trying to enlighten me on the media, as well as anime. I am all for any way to communicate the ridiculousness of our current political climate.
