Bernie McGovern is a cartoonist, portraiture artist, and mostly functional human being living in his native Chicago. His work explores empathy in the face of violence across an emotional landscape, marred by raging deities and industrious tyrants. The world of An Army of Lovers may be awful and debased, but its inhabitants will never stand for it. Bernie's more self aware comics may know that at the center of each of his books is a little mammal who would love to cuddle up, nap, and dream all the days away.
