5.0 out of 5 stars If you like The Onion you'll love this book
If you are not afraid of humor at its darkest, sickest, strangest and certainly most un-politically correct you'll love this book. These cartoons reminds me of Spike & Mike's Sick & Twisted Animation Festival. It's also nice to see a Callahan book with a theme (Dogs). On the other hand if you like your humor simple & sweet I suggest you stay with Family...

2.0 out of 5 stars Woof
I bought this book because Callahan is one of my favorite cartoonists. He has a razor wit and creative bent unique in our time. However, this book is merely a retrospective of the development of Callahan's art over the years (I'm assuming; the panels are undated). Many of the early pages are useless as humor; their only value is for an academic or a family friend...

This review is from: Get Down!! Dog Cartoons (Paperback)
I bought this book because Callahan is one of my favorite cartoonists. He has a razor wit and creative bent unique in our time. However, this book is merely a retrospective of the development of Callahan's art over the years (I'm assuming; the panels are undated). Many of the early pages are useless as humor; their only value is for an academic or a family friend. Many of the drawings are crude (early career?), and many of the concepts are repeated or are just not enlightening as humor. I was hoping for a collection of his finest work. Digested and passed in twenty minutes. Woof.
