Anders Nilsen is the extraordinary author of Big Questions, a haunting postmodern fable which follows a group of birds in a vast open plain confronted with a fallen aircraft, its lost pilot and an inscrutable young boy encountering the world on his own for the first time. The collected edition was the winner of an Ignatz Award for Outstanding Graphic Novel, the Lynd Ward Graphic Novel Prize and listed among the New York Times 100 notable books in 2011. His current on-going comics work is the 10-issue, self-published series Tongues.

Had a chance to do a rare full bleed cover for @nybooks election issue this week. Felt good to get to go full towering apocalyptic... but also get to honor the many real people who are struggling to pull this particular monument down and dump it in a swamp somewhere like it deserves... One version had the monument pullers as more or less actual people. We went more general, but the faces of @staceyabrams and my home town rep @repilhan are still hopefully recognizable. And I guess that second one is sort of still Bernie. Kind of. One thing I found out doing this is that trying to do an actual realistic portrait of the president is weirdly soul crushing. Like staring into the void. Doing him as a sort of inflatable cartoon baby is much more enjoyable. #votevotevote
