Karen Romano Young and Cartoons from the Arctic

It is my pleasure to present cartoonist Karen Romano Young. Karen is currently sailing on the U.S. Coast Guard Cutter Healy. The Healy is an icebreaker that is pushing its way through the ice during NASA’s ICESCAPE expedition. I will be posting anything Karen sends my way. If you want to see more of her work you can visit her site or pre-order her book Doodlebug: A Novel in Doodles. My friend and writer extraordinaire Ann Downer Hazel brought Karen’s work to my attention and all of us should be grateful to her for that! Karen is also guest blogging on Ann’s blog Science + Story. Check it out! Here’s the comic (click on it for a bigger version).
