It is with immense pride that we acknowledge FEEDING GHOSTS as the first graphic novel to receive this distinction since Art Spiegelman’s MAUS was recognized in 1992. This historic achievement is a testament to the remarkable work of Tessa Hulls, to whom we extend our sincerest congratulations.

From @mattyhuynh.bsky.social: A US military psy-op tried to scare Viet Cong soldiers with tape recordings of Vietnamese “ghosts.” This comic confronts its strange echoes reverberating 50 years later.

The Americans demoralized the Viet Cong with recordings of "ghosts" and congratulated itself on scaring the superstitious enemy. Then Hanoi Hannah began her English-language broadcasts. Part history lesson, part personal essay — every part a work of art: www.theverge.com/cs/features/...

Artist @cathylinhche.bsky.social's parents were extras in Apocalypse Now. But in trying to recenter their experience in her own work, she wondered: whose story was it to tell?

There are many remnants of the war. A very literal one is the millions of tons of bombs still scattered across Vietnam that will still take hundreds of years to clear—and that was before Trump pulled funding.
The US dropped 4 million tons of explosives during the Vietnam War. How many bombs is that? How can you imagine it?

This week @theverge.com is publishing a series on the legacy of the Vietnam War. I wrote about the generation of children who were adopted from the war. While reporting this, I was struck by how historically singular the experiences of this group of people are.

as a young illustrator in Sydney, an AD once asked me to redo an illustration because it felt too much like Brad Holland. I wasn’t referencing Holland, wasn’t looking, hadn’t actively engaged with his work, but even so that’s how giant a shadow his talent cast over many generations of ‘real artists’
