Beschreibung
The inaugural collection of cartoons that introduced Tom Gauld's literary wit to the world now in paperback. "Precise and wryly hilarious. Gauld's both a literature nerd and a science-fiction nerd whose deadpan mashups belong on the same shelf as Kate Beaton. "-NPRDrawn from Tom Gauld's popular comics feature in The Guardian. , You're All Just Jealous of My Jetpack. perfectly distills Gauld's dark humor, impeccable timing, and distinctive style. Classic strips like "The Brontë Sisters: The Videogame" and "The Serious Rock Critic" (who's written 32 books about Led Zeppelin) intermingle hilariously with piercing observations about politics and human behavior (see: "The Greedy Dog Stands on the Chair of Hope to Feast on the Sausage of Hubris") and whimsical imaginings of the future (see: "The 'Great Automaton Strike' of 2029 Saw the Birth of the Robot Protest Song"). Again and again, Gauld reaffirms his position as a first-rank cartoonist, creating work infused with a deep understanding of both literary and cartoon history.
