 On
October 1, 2017, 58 people died and 851 more were injured when gunman Stephen
Paddock fired multiple rounds into the Route 91 Harvest Music Festival in Las
Vegas. It was the deadliest mass shooting in United States history. Image will
tell the stories of the survivors and the effects of gun violence in Where We
Live. The GN came to be when J.H. Williams III and his wife Wendy
Wright-Williams decided to tell the story of something that happened where they
live. Both were talking with a friend of theirs who was on duty when the event
folded out and decided to help the survivors by asking their fellow creators to
tell the stories of the victims and talk about gun violence in general. The 300
plus page GN ships at the end of May and has contributions from: Michael and
Laura Allred, Geof Darrow, Dave Stewart, Brian Michael Bendis, Michael Oeming,
Taki Soma, Haden Blackman, Richard Pace, Todd Klein. Ivan Brandon, Paul Azaceta,
Kurt Busiek, Amy Chu, Gabriel Hernandez Walta, Kelly Sue DeConnick, Joelle

went to Vegas the week after the event I can tell you that the city was surreal
but had recovered in some ways.
