Brewster Rockit: Space Guy!

By Tim Rickard

You don't have to be a Trekkie or own a light saber to enjoy this cosmic space parody. The brainchild of cartoonist Tim Rickard, Brewster Rockit: Space Guy is woefully ill-prepared to be the captain of space station R. U. Sirius. Together with his bumbling crew of misfits, including Engineer Cliff Clewless and Science Officer Doctor Mel Practice, Brewster encounters a constantly challenging set of interplanetary anomalies that push the limits of space, time, and humor continuums.

Customer Reviews

Brewster Rocket Rocks

My kids loved reading it. They were glued to the book while other gifts were left unopened. We hope there is another book coming out soon.

A very funny and enjoyable book

I really enjoyed this book, and I was familiar with strip as I read it online daily and it is also in my local paper that I get two days a week; so you can get a feel for it in advance. All the strips in this book are in color, and that is rare when compared to other books.

uniquely funny

Mr. Rickards very funny strip certainly is a world unto itself. I can't quite think of another comic strip (except "Pearls Before Swine") that has so many dark edges, and yet remain so funny. Where else except in this comic strip collection can you see contemporary humans allied with Tolkiens Hobbits in a battle against the Wicked Wizard of the West in Land of Oz? Insane!

Space Comedy Rocks

As a fan of science fiction, I absolutely adore Brewster Rockit Space Guy. I think you have to love Outer Space, and all the creatures we imagine might occupy Outer Space, to truly appreciate the strip. Not only does the strip have hilarious space jokes, but there is plenty of good banter between the characters. My only regret is that the book is too short for the addiction I have to Brewster Rockit Space Guy. I hope the comic strip comes out with a new book soon!!!

Great fun.

Very funny. My husband and I like it. My 11 year old (boy) and 9 year old (girl) couldn't put it down. They read it cover to cover, and think it is very funny. I got to read it after they did. Fun for all. The kids enjoy the spoofs on well-known movies (Star Wars, Wizard of Oz, Lord of the Rings...). We want more!
