25 years ago Tom Tomorrow
rose from the primordial ooze of 1991 and set about documenting the
twisted political trappings of his surroundings… a collection of words
and pictures which would come to form This Modern World. This 15-pound behemoth 25 Years of Tomorrow collects
every cartoon Tom has written and drawn—over 1,500 cartoons! Enjoy
early collage and cartoon experiments, interviews, rare illustrations,
photos, Tom’s all-too-accurate children’s book The Very Silly Mayor, his Pearl Jam Backspacer collaboration, and more. Tom Tomorrow (Dan Perkins) is the creator of This Modern World, a weekly cartoon of political and social satire which is featured on sites such as TheNation, Daily Kos, and Medium,
and which has been a mainstay of the alternative press for more than
two decades. His work has also appeared in publications including The New York Times, the New Yorker, Esquire, Spin, MotherJones, USNewsandWorldReport, the Economist,
and many others. He is a two-time recipient of the Robert F. Kennedy
Journalism Award, the 2013 recipient of the Herblock Prize for editorial
cartooning, and a 2015 finalist for the Pulitzer Prize.

If you missed out on the big Kickstarter compilation, comics
publisher IDW has just put out a second edition. (If your local indy
bookstore has it in stock, please buy it there, but if not you can buy
it through the link below and I get a few bucks as an Amazon affiliate
in addition to my royalty.)
This is an expanded edition, with some additional pages of Trump
material (up through the election, basically). If you backed the
original Kickstarter (at book level or higher) and would like to buy a
copy of this edition, email me (tomtomorrow-at-gmail) and I’ll give you a
code good for a discount.
