The Cover: This week’s issue sports a wonderful dog-in-the-park cover by John Cuneo. We’re told in a Q & A that it’s his tenth cover for the magazine. Very nice to see an early version of the cover in the online “Cover Story.” More of Mr. Cuneo’s work can be found on his website.
The Illustrations: Four-and-a-third full pages this week among the twenty-two illustrations (including photographs, but not including the Talk drawings).
Cartoons: Twelve cartoonists/twelve cartoons.

Duo Effort: A fun cartoon from Pia Guerra and Ian Boothby.
