Cats Don't Exist

By Jis

Best-selling Mexican cartoonist Jis (Jose Ignacio Solorzano) makes his American debut in Cats Don't Exist, a collection of strips that will nudge the lucky reader gently into a dissonant universe. With a childlike mastery of the obvious and an inspired sense of mischief, Jis offers simple, earthy insights in a cosmically absurd landscape. Cats Don't Exist is an evolution in psychedelia that will render you incapable of wiping that silly smirk off your face. Book jacket.

surreal splendour

One of the most imaginative art collections i've seen in years. Especially likely to interest fans of Jim Woodring (the "Frank" comics). B & W art, with 7 pages of colour in the center. Content runs from humourous to profound, includes some adult content. Some multiple page stories, a few 2-panel strips, and Lots of single illustration statements (packed together tightly with many to a page); very low white space quotient. I Highly recommend.
