| | In These Times | WW3 Illustrated |
 | | Actually, the WW3 project has been around for 20 years, annual volumes more or less self-published by a collection of youngish artists, anthologized occasionally (as Confrontational Comics by Four Walls, Eight Windows in 1995). |
 | | What we have here, in historical terms, is a recuperation of the 1910s Masses magazine’s Ash Can artists interacting with another war threat (the approach of the World War I, during which the magazine was suppressed) and a social promise (something of Greenwich Village and the Industrial Workers of the World). |
 | | Offering a wide variety of artistic approaches, WW3 artists offer realistically and surrealistically enticing views of the horrors in front of us, the struggles to turn things around—and how stupid our leaders really look. |
