Prefer your biographies of philosophers in comics form? This is a great way to discover the life of Herbert Marcuse, the 20th-century proponent of “principled utopianism,” which inspired activists from Angela Davis to Kathy Acker. Thorkelson's graphic biography has drawn the admiration of such artist/storytellers as Joe Sacco (Footnotes in Gaza) and Kate Evans (Red Rosa: A Graphic Biography).
