George Lois Can Still Kick Your Ass

by Aaron Kenedi March 20, 2012

Avengers Assembled, the Sequel

by Aaron Kenedi February 28, 2012

J.J. Sedelmaier's recent post on Superman got my comic book mojo going. I've always been more of a Marvel guy myself and it got me thinking about this piece I did a year and half ago for Imprint about the wild rumors surrounding the highly anticipated Avengers movie.

My Hometown

by Aaron Kenedi November 29, 2011

A few years ago I had the good fortune to edit a lovely little book called I Met the Walrus, based on an Oscar-nominated short animated film of the same name.

Death on the Mountain

by Aaron Kenedi November 22, 2011

It's end-of-the-year, new-calendar time again. You might be tempted by cats wearing silly hats, or hot girls on the hood of cars, or fast airplanes or cute babies.

Shout it Loud and Shout it Proud!

by Aaron Kenedi June 24, 2011

In honor of New York's Gay Pride Parade this Sunday, we wanted to show off Mirko Ilic's new poster design for the event, what he calls "a combination of Alexander Rodchenko's poster, 'Lengiz-Books' (1925) and the famous 'Silence = Death' (1986) poster about AIDS."
