Sacco's New War
November 14, 2003
Joe Sacco is a journalist, a cartoonist…and a cartoon journalist. Drawing himself into his books and strips as a kind of bespectacled everyman, he literally illustrates the difficulties involved in reporting from war zones around the world. His books about the Bosnian war and the Palestinian occupation have won praise for their honesty and bleak humor. Now, he's taking some time away from the battlefield to pen stories about the campaign trail for the Washington Monthly. He tells Bob about his new beat.
