''A.D.: New Orleans After the Deluge'' is a non-fiction graphic novel by cartoonist Josh Neufeld. It tells the stories of a handful of real-life New Orleans residents and their experiences during and after Hurricane Katrina. ''A.D.'' was a ''New York Times'' best-seller and was nominated for a 2010 Eisner Award and a 2010 Harvey Award. In addition, ''A.D.'' was selected for inclusion in ''The Best American Comics 2010''. In ''A.D.'', author Neufeld draws upon interviews with the actual people represented in the story; newspaper, magazine, and blog accounts of the events surrounding Hurricane Katrina and its effects on New Orleans; and his own experiences as a Red Cross volunteer in the weeks after the storm.〔 == Publication history == ''A.D.'' was serialized as a webcomic on SMITH Magazine in 2007–2008. The web version of ''A.D.'' utilizes the Internet in a variety of interesting ways to expand the scope of the story beyond the comic itself. Many pages and panels have links to outside sources such as audio and video clips, newspapers stories, photo essays, and the like. The ''A.D.'' website also features audio & video clips from the characters, a blogroll, a resource library, and a blog (in addition to a comments section for each chapter.)〔 (The shorter web version of ''A.D.'' continues to live on the SMITH website.) The hardcover edition of ''A.D.'' was released by Pantheon Graphic Novels on August 18, 2009, shortly before Hurricane Katrina's fourth anniversary. It went on to become a ''New York Times'' bestseller.〔("Graphic Books: Hardcover Graphic Books," ) ''New York Times'' (September 3, 2009).〕 ''A.D.'' came out in paperback, with a new cover, and a new afterword, in the summer of 2010, on the fifth anniversary of Hurricane Katrina.
