Book of Sick

By Mike Shapiro

To his many fans, the name Shapiro scrawled sideways in the last panel is a sure sign of something darkly funny or just plain dark. Typical denizens of Shapiro's simply drawn, creepy demimonde include Buttons the Helper Monkey, cursed with a grim task; "silly"-livered Otto, who drinks to forget his small size; and one-legged Ethel, who finds disquieting uses for her stump. Mike Shapiro's work is syndicated in Bizarre, Gallery, and Phoenix New Times. This collection of cartoons by a master of off-color wit features illustrations throughout.

Customer Reviews

Book Of Sick Rocks

Have you been waiting for some seriously dysfunctional humor that's not all high brow or racist or worse yet not even funny just mean? Then this is the book for you. Making casual honest observations and putting them in a funny picture. Its dark. No shadows here because there is no ray of hope. Pure in its honesty and plain in its portrayal of us. The dysfunctional functioning broken souls.
