Heads up, puzzle people! The December 27th issue of the New Yorker will be an enhanced version of the annual cartoon issue. It’s Cartoons & Puzzles! The puzzles will include crosswords, a cryptic, an acrostic, a trivia quiz, and a meta-puzzle hidden throughout the magazine. The 12/27 issue should hit newsstands and subscriber mailboxes around Monday the 20th, and online readers can print out the puzzles. I’m looking forward to it!—Amy
