Peter Bagge's Other Stuff

During the 1990s and 2000s, Peter Bagge worked on the seminal Hate comic, but his dozens of shorter stories are now being collected in this riotously anarchic book. Peter Bagge's Other Stuff includes a few lesser-known Bagge characters, including the wacky modern party girl "Lovey," not to mention the self-explanatory "Rock 'N' Roll Dad," starring Murry Wilson and the Beach Boys. But many of the strips are one-off gags or short stories, often with a contemporary satirical slant, including on-site reportage and more. Also: Dick Cheney, The Matrix, and Alien! Bagge is one of the funniest cartoonists of the century (20th or 21st), and this collection shows him at his most free-wheeling and craziest ... 50 times over.
