Editorial Reviews

From the Publisher

Long out of print, we knew that we had to republish this book just to get the fans to stop camping in front of the building. The hardcover edition (ISBN:1-890856-04-5) is limited to 500 signed and numbered copies. Story and Art by Phil Foglio. Colors by Phil Foglio, Cecelia Cosentini & Julie Ann Sczesny

Excerpted from Buck Godot - Zap Gun Fore Hire, volume 1 Introduction:
The latter part of the Twentieth Century was to become known as "The Long Wait" because that is what everybody seemed to be doing..... ... The threat of nuclear war, the steady destruction of the ecosystem, the failure of world economy, the rise of illiteracy and superstition, massive starvation, fear and mistrust of the government, and the lack of a really good- tasting diet soda, seemed to indicate that even if anybody managed to survive the coming Apocalypse, they'd have a pretty rotten time of it.

Format: Paperback
Absolutely the funniest author on the planet. No kidding. No, I'm not related to him and I dont work for him. This series involves a large private detective on a planet with no laws. The comic art is first rate (the pictures are funny even without the text) and the dialog is priceless. Foglio also did a graphic novel of the first MythAdventures book which is a real hoot, and is the author/illustrator of XXXenophile, the sweetest natured absolutly filthy comic book you ever saw. The comic book versions of these are available here and there, but they really deserve to be in print. Whom do we petition?

Format: Paperback
If you ever saw Star Wars and thought "Han Solo would be much cooler if he were 300+ lbs." This book is for you. If you ever harbored a desire to shoot up an intergalactic saloon & get paid for it... This book is for you. If you've ever considered resigning from your current job and becoming a disciple of the SlagBlah priests... This book is Definitely for you. Phil Foglio was also co-author of 'Illegal Aliens' and is the illustrator of a whole bunch of those 'Magic the Gathering' cards with his wife Kaja. If you can get it, this graphic novel is well worth it.

This hard to find graphic novel is worth the read. The one liners used by the characters are repeated by my friends and I to this day, years later. VERY funny book!
