"(E) Peter Kuper, Kevin Pyle Now in its 28th year of publication! With all this talk about a picture being worth a thousand words - and so much chatter being in the news with very little being said - we've decided the 39th issue of World War 3 illustrated will be our first wordless edition. Completely international, beyond language barriers, with everyone speaking a common language, Sort of a Tower of Babel, but without the babble. Covers by Eric Drooker and Peter Kuper, and all-new comics by some of the best political catoonists and illustrators working today, including Geoffrey Grahn, Ryan Inzana, Edel Rodrigues, Seth Tobocman, Terry Laban, Felipe Galindo, Lloyd Dangle, Mac McGill, David Sandlin, Barron Storey, Andy Singer, Sabrina Jones, Santiago Cohen, and many more."

"(E) Seth Tobocman (W/A) Various The message the American people sent with the 2008 election is clear: after 28 years of right wing dominance in politics, Americans are unhappy with the results. The country is distressed - economically, ecologically, and militarily. WW3 Illustrated is asking that artists do more than just criticize things as they are, and they responded with 120 pages of answers from a variety of today's sharpest comic book artists; alternatives to existing conditions, proposals for progress and ideas for a better world for all."

"(E) Sandy Jiminez Consider the 'Food Chain,'our place in it and our relationship and experiences with/within it, both literally and metaphorically. Big fish eat little fish; rich men eat organic; poor men eat McDonald's. Everybody eats, but how do we stop from being eaten? This issue unearths some of the answers and asks the big questions. Featuring work by Peter Kuper, Seth Tobocman, Sabrina Jones, Jennifer Camper, Rebecca Migdal, Mac McGill, Sandy Jimenez, and many others."

"(E) Seth Tobocman, Ethan Heitner, Jordan Worley Nothing gives us more hope than the uprisings we see taking place around the world. We see the spirit of rebellion spreading from Tunisia to Cairo to Libya to Wisconsin. These events remind us that human rights should be universal. We are reassured that all human beings want the same things; peace, prosperity, freedom of expression and self-governance. In a word, 'Tahrir' (liberation). World War 3 Illustrated #42 is dedicated to the possibilities for liberation around the world and here in America."
