This helps ensure that the art is respectfully done to represent that background, and to help eliminate cultural appropriation.
This includes editing and consultation from Jennifer Kretchmer, Luca Alexander, and Evlyn Moreau
And artwork by: Theresa Guido (cover), Liz Courts, Jae Young, Billy Blue, Ezequiel Siñaris, Ernanda Souza, Chukwudi Nwaefulu, Carlos Castilho, Kinga Ren Kossowska, Luigi Castellani, Johnathan Bingham, Nathan Rosario, Rick Hershey, Colin Throm, Hanna Beck, Larry Elmore, Eric Lofgren, Gary Dupis, Storn Cook, V Shane, Kimagu, Michael Clarke, Bradley McDevitt, Grey Thornberry, Jeremy Moher, Jack Badashki, Tamas Baranya, William McAusland, Denis McCarthy, Michael Scotta, Dean Spencer, Jeshields, Kevin Davies, and Jacob Blackmon
