Another good book


Here's a comic by Peter Bagge, who we may all remember from the comic book "Hate."
He recently released a collection of his comics that were published in "Reason" Magazine. The collection, and the comics therein are up to his usual high standards of intelligent entertainment.
It's really unique to see a collection of what amount to illustrated newspaper columns.
I have been catching up on his work, in that I just read his new graphic novel, "Peter Bagge's Other Lives." I also was re-reading the older issues of "Hate."
One of these days, I may come up with a longer essay about Bagge's work, but for now I'll just say the old stuff is as good as I remembered, and the new stuff is as creative as I'd hoped.
