My new comic is KAPO KOMMANDOS, featuring Jared Kushner and Benjamin Netanyahu, whose names will one day be blotted out.
Excerpt below, full comic here:

Some notes on this comic:
I wrote the original script almost a full year ago, in the aftermath of the cataclysmic American decision to move our Embassy to Jerusalem - reinforcing Israeli apartheid with antisemitic Evangelical pastors at the ceremony.

I put it aside while working on some other comics, including this essay comic that emerged from the title:
jewishcurrents.org/kapo-kapow/
I worked on the art off and on until October, when we experienced the most horrific pogrom in American history, incited by the President himself

After Pittsburgh, the ending to KAPO KOMMANDOS lost much of its satirical/hyperbolic pull, and I was hesitant to finish it until the rawness of the trauma had subsided. But the experience put the 2018 American Jewish experience into a stark relief I think we need to remember: (3/
Embassy Move in the Spring and the Pittsburgh Pogrom in the Fall are 2 poles of the American Jewish tragedy under Trump. It's no shock that the fascists who celebrated the Embassy Move raced from Israel in the aftermath of Pittsburgh to run interference for American Nazism.

Whether in Israel or America, they are selling us out. Stoking Nazism while satiating Evangelism = recipe for ultimate extermination. Alarm bells need to be going off 24/7. Any Jew/Jewish organization that is complicit in this nightmare is an existential threat to all of us (5/)
End of today’s sermon!!! Also the art is in the hot-off-the-presses new @JewishCurrents, which looks spectacular and not only bc it features a full page comic:
This forces a post-midnight re-up I'm sorry
Engaging in Holocaust revisionism with a fascist eager to please his Evangelical base? Re-up redux
