Reviews

[Fumijo · Rating 5 out of 5]

This book is amazing. I'd read some of Goodwin's comics in the past, but they were really hard to find because all of the collections were out of print. This solved that issue by making them all available in one giant volume.

He started writing and drawing these back in the 1970s, and all sorts of authors and writers and creators in the science fiction book, television, and movie industry love these hilarious comics. He even got Alan Dean Foster to write a foreword to it.

This is a really fun book. Pick up a copy today (or borrow it from your local library) and read it.
