Description

Over four decades and a multitude of books, "Colonel" Glen Baxter has built a world and a language all his own - slightly familiar, decidedly abnormal, irresistibly funny. Have you felt the terror of a failed Szechuan dinner? Have you seen what happens at precisely six-fifteen? Do you know where the beards are stored? Either way, this is the book for you. Celebrated by everyone from Salman Rushdie to Ed Ruscha, Baxter's drawings are a delicious stew of pulp adventures, highbrow hijinks, and outright absurdity: cornpone cowboys confront the latest in modern art, brave men tremble before moussaka, schoolgirls horde hashish, and the world's fruits are in constant peril. Whimples abound. This new selection of Baxter's comics brings together highlights from the full sweep of his long career, and is sure to enchant both confirmed Baxterians and those who are in dire need of an introduction.
