Adrian Tomine is the author and illustrator behind the comic book series Optic Nerve which began publication in 1991— first as a self-published work and later as a collection of books by Drawn & Quarterly. He’s also created several classic covers for The New Yorker. His latest book is an illustrated memoir called The Loneliness of the Long-Distance Cartoonist. Adrian joins Bullseye guest host Brian Heater to talk about how making comics prepared him for screenwriting, trying to do a book tour during a pandemic and what’s next for him. Plus, he’ll talk to us about that infamous Fresh Air interview. All that and more on the next Bullseye.
