With legions of fans being drawn to its inimitable style, Bizarro has become one of the country's fastest-growing syndicated cartoon panels since its launching in 1985. In this new collection, his fourth to date, Dan Piraro once again demonstrates an uncanny talent for making wildly startling situations even more extravagant. Notorious for his provocative and elaborately executed drawing style, Piraro is like a curious, mischievous child, lifting rocks and peeking around corners to reveal the secrets of the universe as he perceives them. It's a crazy, improbable world, and Glasnost Bizarro gives loyal readers (as well as unsuspecting ingenues) the chance to belly-laugh at the author's peculiarly skewed sensibilities.
The title »Glasnost Bizarro« has absolutely nothing to do with the contents of this yet another collection of Dan Piraro's one-picture-jokes - it's just another sign of his strange humor... and it refers to a joke on the cover (front AND back) of the book...Which IS one of his better collections, although not reaching the level of his earliest work!Still, Piraro's Bizarro is in the class of Gary Larson, so if you don't know him, you definitely have to give it a shot.
