More recently, Haque and Panagariya have produced the short Disconnect for City Limits, a graphic novel anthology by Day Media. Haque has also finished a large project for popular webcomic Penny Arcade, for the collectable card game (CCG) based on the property. He is also the recipient of a CGTalk Choice Award.
