Founding Fathers Funnies

The American Revolution has never been funnier! America’s founding fathers were brilliant, brave, forward-thinking…and ridiculous, at least in the eyes of cartoonist and history buff Peter Bagge! I find myself laughing out loud whenever I read of their foibles, especially when their oversized egos clashed, says the author. This collection of short vignettes features some of our country’s best-known historical figures (along with several lesser-known players) and includes all Founding Fathers Funnies cartoons from Apocalypse Nerd and Dark Horse Presents. This hardcover also features several brand new stories and additional biographical information!

I can count on one hand the number of comic artists whose work is as strong…Maybe on two or three fingers. -Robert Crumb

Peter Bagge is one of the best comic storytellers ever. -Vice

Peter Bagge remains one of those premiere old-school 80s/90s alt-cartoonists who built their careers one corrosively funny page at a time. -The A.V. Club

Series Overview- This is a standalone Peter Bagge title but one of a number of his books in the Dark Horse catalog.
