NEW: Deep underground, a machine named “Hazel” is digging a 2-mile-long tunnel. It’s meant to keep millions of gallons of sewage from seeping into the Potomac. And it’s drilling below the historic city of Alexandria, Va. Come 138 feet under w/ Post Local wapo.st/44xYx8L

how do you tell a story — one that happened over 100 years ago — as a comic? months of research and over a dozen pages of visual references. Nicole Dungca Claire Healy broke down how we did it: wapo.st/3KJggmn

I’m joining 700+ of my Washington Post colleagues and walking off the job today because the company is breaking the law and bargaining in bad faith. Washington Post Guild is fighting for better wages and a fair contract. Respect our picket line by avoiding Post journalism for 24 hours.
