Description: | Select Guide Rating This fatalistically funny collection follows in the vein of All My Friends Are Dead and Zombies Hate Stuff in the relatable form of Scott Koblish of Marvel Comic's many, varied, and ridiculous deaths, imagined for his own amusement and ours. Marvel Comics artist Scott Koblish (Deadpool, Spider-Man) has been illustrating his own demise for many years in morbidly funny, 4-panel black-and-white comics. He''s the one person struck by a comet, suddenly overrun by a pack of baboons, resting under the precarious rock tipped by a single bird, or the target of his daughter''s (of course homicidal) teddy bear come to life. Though it''s always Scott on the receiving end, the comics perfectly capture that irrational feeling we all have that everything can go very wrong in one irrevocable instant. Slapstick, surreal, and eerily plausible, with extended scenarios and pops of color throughout, this collection of cosmic reckonings shows that, if the end is nigh, at least you''ll die laughing. |
