Love and Other Weird Things

<p><strong>The world can always use a laugh. But today, the world could really use <strong><em>these</em></strong> laughs in <strong><em>this</em></strong> collection of comic strips and panel cartoons.</strong><br /><br /><em>Love and Other Weird Things</em> is a cartoon collection by the soon-to-be-household-name-if-there's-any-justice-in-this-world Rich Sparks. The cast of characters seem innocuous enough: foul-mouthed animals, Paul Bunyan, Smokey the Bear, stout men in tighty whities. But the situations give Monty Python a run for their money. And the juxtapositions--good heavens! Sparks has been published in the <em>New Yorker</em>, the <em>Wall Street Journal</em>, and many other publications. Now he breaks out on his own with approximately 150 bizarre but sweet(ish) but, no seriously, really bizarre, but also really funny cartoons.</p>
