You need to get this amazing collection. Forecast is a diverse but tightly edited selection, composed of various renowned and/or talented comic artists and designers riffing on the theme of "forecast". You can't miss the weather reference, that does manifest in an underlying climate change theme, but that's far from the only concern of this anthology - there's all manner of playing with ideas of future, of unpredictability, of change, from all manner of angles. The diverse pieces are cohesive even as they explore different moods, and simple things like a nice consistent print style add to the impression that this isn't just your everyday serial grab bag - this issue of Nozone has come out because they have succeeded in collecting together all the things they wanted to say, and the questions they wanted to ask, and the ways they wanted to play with the idea of Forecast. Get it, your passport to the United States of China.

i love nozone - this latest issue doesn't fail to impress (though empire is still my favorite)

Graphic novel + Adbusters + futurism + infographics + FUD + beautiful graphic design... add some Mad Magazine + Otto Neurath + Robert Crumb = fantastic book.
