Have you ever experienced adventure in your own bathtub?
At Pop Culture Bored poster Brian Nicholson let's us know that McSweeney's has a deal going on this week where if you spend more than $30 you get Michael Kupperman's book Snake 'n' Bacon's Cartoon Cabaret for FREE!
I urge those who can afford to take part in this to do so. There is not one single page of Kupperman's book that does not having something funny on it. If you're into the humor found in television shows like Mr. Show, the early-90's Saturday Night Live and TV Funhouse (where Robert Smigel adapted some of Kupperman's cartoons in this book) then this is right for you. Kupperman's slightly-off style of 1950's comic book art is perfect for EC comics parodies (Muder Me, Muder You! is one of the parody covers) as well as the longer strips that just get more and more bizarre as they go along, such as the story of the eponymous Snake 'n' Bacon.
So go and suck up the McSweeney's goodness and get yourself some free Kupperman. If one of your purchases is the September 2004 issue of The Beliver you'll get a free reprint of Army Man #1, the humor magazine by Simpsons writer Geroge Meyer that will go along quite well with the Kupperman funniness. But don't let me tell you what to buy, go get anything you want so along as it's enough to get the free book. Books are better when they're free.
