Overview

Bestselling cartoonist Jim Benton of It’s Happy Bunny and Dear Dumb Diary fame has also been posting whimsical, dry-humored, and at-times nasty cartoons on Reddit.com, where nearly half of the top-100 cartoons on the “Cartoons” subreddit are his. Now, for the first time, these cartoons have been gathered into a single book. From wry observations about the absurdities of life and acerbic comments to poetic musings, from cats and dogs to humans, and from one style to another, this compendium will astound readers as it exposes them to the breadth of Benton’s seemingly inexhaustible talent for humor.

Reviews

"Consistently brilliant, always hilarious, Jim Benton is one of the best cartoonists on the web right now."  — Matthew Inman, TheOatmeal.com

"If laughter is the best medicine, then your insurance company should reimburse you for the cost of this book."  —Jerry Zucker, director, Airplane!, Top Secret!, and other films

"It was marvelously entertaining, because Benton is obviously insane, or insanely creative. Not two gags were very much alike, and tone and subject matter ranged from light-hearted 'The Far Side' kind of stuff, to the black humor of Charles Addams' 'The Addams Family,' and everywhere in between. 'Dog Butts' turned out to be genuinely original and very entertaining." —Chicago Tribune

"Easy to pick up but hard to put down...Pick up a copy of this hilarious new book, you won't be disappointed!" —PopCulturez.com

"Twisted, brutally honest and laugh out loud comics…this book is the perfect gift for someone who needs to lighten up! Well recommended." —Joseph's Reviews

"Essentially, if you or your recipient like books that make you want to photograph and tweet every page, you should buy this." —Holly Brockwell, gadgette.com
