The Rise and Fall of Yip the Wonder Dog
by Andy Hartzell
With so many comics tricks at his command, Andy Hartzell can work with all kinds of fetching layouts and still bring the smoothest wordless cartoon around. Once you open the cover, this comic makes you read the rest. It's the classic rags-to-riches story, but delights the reader with all sorts of twists and hilarious caricatures. Plus that dog is really cute. -JR
"A funny account of a heroic dog's journey into Hollywood fame and
subsequent decadent excess. Hubris is punished and loyalty is rewarded
in the end, but it was the sight of a dog doing lines of coke and
dancing the night away (along with the other absurd but logical
extremes of the narrative) that made this tidy story so much fun."
