Tinkerers GN (2010)

Imagine a nation that has lost its ability and desire to make things…” With that tagline, we enter the world of TINKERERS, a graphic novel and “original tale of the near future” written by David Brin and illustrated by Jan Feindt. The comic book envisions a dystopian future, painting America’s flailing manufacturing sector as both victim of and primary accomplice to its own demise. As much an economic tale as a moral one, TINKERERS’ authors clearly have the US industry’s failings in their crosshairs.
