From HuffPost:
A San Diego-based comic publisher has figured out a novel way to actually get people to read the Mueller report: Turn it into a graphic novel.
IDW Publishing announced on Friday that it is publishing “The Mueller Report: Graphic Novel,” an illustrated version of the investigation by special counsel Robert Mueller and his team into Russian interference in the 2016 U.S. election.
Justin Eisinger, who’s editing the book, believes comic illustrations are the key to drawing more eyeballs to the report’s findings.
“This really is the easiest way to get people to actually read it,” he told HuffPost.
Artist Shannon Wheeler, who is doing the book with journalist Steve Duin, said he was surprised by how “readable” Mueller’s report actually is — and says real-life characters like President Donald Trump, former Attorney General Jeff Sessions and former Trump adviser Steve Bannon are “straight out of Dick Tracy.”
Wheeler promises a combination of factual information (there will be footnotes referencing the report throughout the book) and a lot of real-life hilarity.

To be clear, PG is not approving/disapproving any opinions about the Mueller Report in the OP.
He’s posted this because of the graphic novel publishing angle and doesn’t expect to revisit the Mueller Report in the future.
I feel terrible. I voted for Trump, and later found out the Russians somehow made me do it. I’m sorry, America.

Who on earth wants to read a GN like that? No wonder they’re going broke.
IDW Media Holdings Investors Call for Sale of Company in Open Letter
What Bleeding Cool, pretty much an industry shill site, won’t tell you is that IDW is floating away on a sea of red ink. Their main shareholder has lent them something like $20 million dollars by this point, since it appears nobody else will lend them money.
