Because of YOU: An Exquisite Corpse
Hang Dai Editions. 2017. 40 pp., $7.00

Created over a three-year period beginning in the summer of 2001, Because of You is an unscripted, impromptu, dynamic dialogue between myself and Dean Haspiel, a unique two-man exquisite corpse that plumbs unparalleled depths of agony and personal humiliation.
The protagonist, “Lionel,” wakes up one morning to an unpleasant surprise. From that point on he faces domestic crises, public transportation, the New York City streets, and his own hyperactive imagination — all in the course of one infamous ill-fated day.

My collaboration with journalist Tori Marlan. This “enhanced e-comic” traces the 12,000-mile journey of Danel, an orphan from the streets of Addis Ababa, across the world to America. Along the way, he encounters child traffickers, dangerous strangers, and border coyotes, searching for the only friend he has left.
All told through The Atavist’s immersive storytelling technology, which includes sound, music, video, and interactive graphics.
“The images, by artist Josh Neufeld, along with the additional layers of sound, animation, dynamic paging, and interactive web-based content, transform Fanuel’s tale from a passive script to the portrait of a real person in a real place. Furthermore, the use of interactive content incorporates the reader’s presence into the story.”
The Rumpus
“… [a] harrowing tale . . . in an awesome, immersive, wonderfully illustrated format.”
Gizmodo
… an engaging meld of investigative journalism and graphic illustration with just enough New Journalism panache to keep a reader interested. . . . [S]hould be a must-read for politicians of every stripe.”

A self-published collection of blog entries from my stint as a Red Cross volunteer shortly after Hurricane Katrina. (It is not a comic book.)
“A great little book. Most of us watched hours of news footage after Katrina, but I can’t say I read or saw anything as personal as this—through Josh’s eyes, we really get to know the people, places and destruction that surrounded him.”
Whitney Matheson, USA Today’s “Pop Candy”

An eclectic two-man anthology I co-created with Dean Haspiel, Keyhole mixed autobiographical stories of international travel with stark tales of introspection and social commentary.
In Keyhole I began telling stories from the around-the-world backpacking adventures of Josh and Sari. My other regular contributions included humorous one-page “travel tips,” “Lionel’s Lament,” and “Titans of Finance.”
Keyhole #1-5 are sold out.

Praise for Keyhole
“The stories of Josh and . . . Sari travelling through Thailand provide a street-level view of other cultures, with nothing whitewashed. . . . The lessons learned are basic but universal, made more relevant through seeing exactly how the travelers came to them. . . . The stories often remind us of the point of traveling — to experience and come to terms with the unknown, and ultimately to address your own spirituality and reason for being.”
