Misery Loves Comedy, by Ivan Brunetti
(Click on thumbnails for enlargement) This beautiful hardbound book from Fantagraphics (and what book by Fantagraphics isn't beautifully-produced, I ask you?) reprints the first 3 issues of Ivan Brunetti's misanthropic, black-humored, comic book, Schizo.
By all rights I should be depressed from reading Brunetti's comic strips, gag cartoons, parodies, and multi-page autobiographical stories, but his absurd sense of humor cuts through the bummer factor for me.
Not for kids! $16.47 on Amazon
