Product Description

Becker Street Volume 1 is filled with the humorous, topical comic strip adventures of Marty Becker - husband and (relatively) new dad - as he tackles the issues of the modern man; dodging kitchen cleanup duty, responsibly introducing his son to violent video games, preparing for one of the many impending apocalypses.

Have you ever read a parenting magazine and suddenly felt you were raising your kids wrong, hid to avoid housework, debated the most practical steps to avoid a zombie attack? If so, then this first Becker Street collection will strike a chord. If not, there's other stuff in it too that you'll probably like.

Becker Street Volume I contains some of the most popular strips in the Becker Street series; the Four Flavors of the Apocalypse cycle, Mind Tourette's, the Baby Vernacular, Bathroom of Solitude, and many more.

Becker Street was originally produced in the "alt-weekly" comic format. An appendix in the book details how the original strips were reformatted for maximum readability on the Kindle screen.

5.0 out of 5 stars Hilarious fun for any new father, June 12, 2009
This review is from: Becker Street Volume I (Kindle Edition)
I followed the author's comics online and fell for the sense of humor, clear wit and being able to identify with his situational humor. It is a must have for any new father going through the new trials in his life or a veteran looking back over his experiences. I am actually a father in waiting and this comic book humorously informs me of what to expect.

For being the author's first publication I was truly pleased by the quality of the humor and how transparent it is that the author must be really inspired by situations that are going on around him. The book is a must that I will share with my father, my brother who is a new father and friends who are just starting their own families.

I dare you to read it and resist the huge I felt to finish it in one sitting. I kept telling myself one more skit and soon found myself up way later than I expected. For that it gave it 5 stars.

5.0 out of 5 stars Frank and funny, April 27, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Becker Street Volume I (Kindle Edition)
I really enjoyed this collection of comic strips. The author brings a fresh and frank voice to the well-trod role of husband and father, tackling a range of topics--from surviving the apocalypse to avoiding diaper duty--with relatability and wit. I use Kindle for iPhone and had no trouble reading the lettering, and the layout has even been painstakingly (as the author points out) reformatted for optimal clarity on the Kindle and iPhone. I'm glad to see the book is labeled Volume I, because I am looking forward to reading more from Becker Street!

This review is from: Becker Street Volume I (Kindle Edition)
How much fun was it to receive the Becker Street books on my new Kindle? LOTS! The tales of this young family making "it work" was a delight. Thanks for the wonderfully drawn illustrations and the stories that make me smile. Keep the books coming. I feel sure you will always have stories that need to be told. For the readers of this review, don't forget to take a look at Becker Street: Future Me
