The Zine is the new (and in development) online magazine from Foundation Stone's LandMinds Show (airing on Arutz Sheva). We'll be featuring original articles relating to the land, history and Torah of Israel. And we're privileged to be showcasing a young artist who will be sharing his cartoons with our audience. His name is Asher Schwartz and we think you'll enjoy his comics as much as we do.

AS REAL AS IT GETS™
As Real As It Gets™ is a new comic feature written and illustrated by Asher Schwartz. Here's his bio:
Asher's Bio
Asher was born in February 1989 and raised with his four siblings in Efrat, Gush Etzion. While in high school, Asher took up his grandfather's hobby of comic artistry and began developing his own unique comic style. After high school, he joined the hesder program at Yeshivat Kiryat Shemona and enlisted two years later in the Golani Brigade, Barak Battalion. During many hours of guard duty in Hebron and on the Gazan border, Asher contemplated new comic ideas. Upon his return to the yeshiva, he began putting his ideas onto paper during his free time. Besides drawing, Asher has played the piano since he was seven years old and enjoys writing his own music. Asher likes to think of his comics not as a parody on real life, but rather as a parallel world in which important and serious matters are taken lightly and humorously. Currently Asher is completing his fifth year in yeshivat Kiryat Shemona. You can email me at asher_schwartz@hotmail.com
