hilarious!

When I first "discovered" B. Kliban's cartoons in the early 80s I was only ever able to get "Never eat anything bigger than your head" and "Whack your porcupine". I always wondered what hidden treasures of bizarre and surreal humor were hidden in the other books. Well I can say that "Two guys fooling around with the moon" is every bit as side-splitting as the other two. From simple puns to outright weirdness, if you have a slightly warped sense of humor this book will have you in stitches (if not in tears)!

Laugh Weirdly

Buy this book, put it where it can be found, and wait for giggles from your guests. Kliban's humor is off-center, but hilarious for those who see the joke in life. Another Kliban book: Never Eat Anything Bigger Than Your Head, contains my all time fav: Genghis & Sylvia Khan, Genghis show with his arm around his wife, who's dressed in a pants suit, fashion glasses, and big hair.
This is funny, funny stuff. dm

Johann Sebastian Boop...

Kliban was not a typical American cartoonist. Most of his work is for adults (a lot of his work was printed in Playboy) and includes obscenities, nudity, and adult humor. This book has all three in droves. What makes Kliban special is his ability to utilize adult humor in a non-gratuitous way. It's not just "dirty humor" for the sake of it, typically the joke calls for "something inappropriate". Consequently, don't look for the politically correct or for comforting status-quo affirming jokes here. One of the salient examples of this (that happens to be quotable) involves two people who look like hippies confronting a leathery man in an alley. The man holds a handful of pills out to the leathery man and says "Hey brother, like we feel awful about how the white man ripped off your land, so we want you to have these dangerous drugs." There's more than humor going on here. Expect the profound along with the ridiculous when reading Kliban. This book also includes: "Barf Bold, A Decorative Typeface", "Better Living Through Plywood #66 and #75", "Fecal Matter Burgers", "Inside a Modern Balloon", "I go for a man in a thick suit", "King Malcom IV was hamstered on the steps of Pewksbury Cathedral, June 11, 1058", "What's good for business is good for America", "Brassiere full of Nickels" and loads more indescribable and unquotable toons. Not to mention that very few of Kliban's books remain in print for some incomprehensible reason. So grab them while you can. This one is still readily available. Hopefully that won't change.

Laugh out loud and know not why with the undisputed King of Cartoon Comedy. If you like Larson then that's no guarantee you'll like Kliban. However, if you take the time to investigate, you will enter a strange and enchanting new world. If you are lucky, you might meet 'Roger Wilco', or learn how to identify classic 'Fool Traits'. You may even be let in on the secret behind the 'Old Rabbit Hoax'.

reviews: page 1, 2

From the author of Never Eat Anything Bigger than Your Head, Whack Your Porcupine, Tiny Footprints, and, of course, the legendary Cat, here is a Kliban doubletake-over 100 line drawings, plus the illustrated serial thriller Cornish Game Clams. Brilliantly drawn and bitterly funny, these cartoons thoroughly demonstrate better living through plywood, reaffirm that what's good for business is good for America-even if Your Government in Action has taken to the streets-the Madonna is out of order and Yoga has been made silly. 122,000 copies in print.
