5.0 out of 5 stars Not for the faint of heart....
The sub-title of HAW!! is "Horrible, Horrible Cartoons.", which pretty much serves to warn away the easily offended. Brunetti serves up 90-some odd (Very odd...) 1 page gag strips that read like "The Far Side" on crack. No topic is taboo, but if you're open minded, and looking for a LOT of laughs at everyone else's expense, HAW!! should fit the bill...

3.0 out of 5 stars This is a disturbing piece of work
"Haw!" isn't completely tasteless, but it's definitely not the apex of comic art either. It's not even really the apex of tasteless comic art--for that, see Johnny Ryan. Somehow his work comes off as funnier and less gross than Ivan Brunetti's. Maybe it's because "Haw!" is mostly single panels?

Anyway, if you read this, I hope your tolerance level is...

This review is from: Haw! (Paperback)
The sub-title of HAW!! is "Horrible, Horrible Cartoons.", which pretty much serves to warn away the easily offended. Brunetti serves up 90-some odd (Very odd...) 1 page gag strips that read like "The Far Side" on crack. No topic is taboo, but if you're open minded, and looking for a LOT of laughs at everyone else's expense, HAW!! should fit the bill. Fans of Lenny Bruce, Bill Hicks, Sam Kinison, Richard Pryor, et al, will find Brunetti's subversive humor to be a perfect counter-point to the misplaced political correctness of the day. I can't rave about this book enough.

Anyway, if you read this, I hope your tolerance level is set very high. Brunetti goes places I don't even really want to think about. I will be returning this to the friend that loaned it to me the next time I see him.
