Infinite Hilarity

Goats is a webcomic powered by caffeine, delight, madness, and a lot of monkeys with great typing skills--usually all at once. It is the first comic I recommend to those with a penchant for science fiction or the strange-but-curiously-sensible strain of logic that places Hell just off the New Jersey Turnpike. Jonathan Rosenberg is the kind of Funny Guy who appeals to almost everyone, because he touches a little of everything. If Monty Python needed to save the multiverse, their hilarious adventures might look a little like those sprung (fully formed?) from the mind of Jon Rosenberg. And let me tell you, this man can write. Goats has been happening for more than twelve years, often five days a week. That is a lot of ideas. That is a lot of zaniness to keep in (relative) order. Bottom line: I wish I lived in Rosenberg's multiverse (buy this book).

Something To Aspire To

As a webcomic creator myself I am in awe of the comic genius that is Goats Infinite Typewriters. Nothing is out of bounds as Jonathan Rosenberg's off the wall humor catches you off guard time and again. He sets you up for the expected joke and then comes out of nowhere with a punchline that, more times than not, leaves you laughing out loud. Infinite Typewriters comes as close to perfect as you can expect from a gag strip. If you are are looking for a comic strip that has the edge that traditional newspaper strips lost long ago this is your book. If you are an aspiring comic strip creator and want to see how it is done right pick up this book. And if you are just need of a good laugh you'll be sure to find it in Goats: Infinite Typewriters.
