See how shittier Shitty Kitty's been while in Morocco, and all the local cats she's been corrupting.
Mission: Comics & Arts present Telephone & Soup's latest Shitty Kitty work inspired by their recent relocation to Rabat, Morocco.
While there, they are putting the finishing touches on the first graphic novel, To Timbuktu, chronicling there time in Mali, and "including the ever-mysterious Timbuktu", as well as doing research on the next fiction graphic novel set in Morocco.

Review by Kristin Farr: Collaborating jet-setters Casey Sciezka and Steven Weinberg mount their new exhibition from afar-- really far! They're currently in Morocco working on a graphic novel. One of their most ambitious projects stars a crudely drawn female feline affectionately known as Shitty Kitty. She's bold, she's sassy, and she is all over Mission Comics and Art for this month's gallery show. Chronicling their travels through photos of real Moroccan cats, Casey and Steven superimpose their own drawings over the photos, showing how Shitty Kitty behaves around foreigners. But it's not all fun and jokes-- cats have an historical significance in that part of the world. Also on view are a deck of Moroccan animal alphabet flash cards acquired and drawn upon by the artists-- Shitty Kitty gets really frisky with other species, she's an animal! Shitty Kitty is impressive in her ability to inspire communities to create their own art. Before they left for their adventure, Casey and Steven hosted regular Shitty Kitty meet-ups at Shotwell's bar where anyone could participate, have a beer, and render their own Shittiest Kitties.
