The Future's So Bright, I Can't Bear to Look



Tom Tomorrow
October 2008     ISBN: 1568584024


Welcome to a world where George Bush and Dick Cheney are secretly radical leftists trying to destroy the Republican party from within; Jeffrey Dahmer is a celebrated conservative pundit and the author of such instant bestsellers as Liberals: Kill Them and Eat Them; and Richard Perle hosts the "NeoCon Game Show," awarding fabulous prizes to the contestant with the most outlandishly inappropriate answers.

Welcome to the world of Tom Tomorrow, whose new anthology skewers the absurdities of American political culture and the depravities of the Bush era with the sardonic wit and keen insight his many loyal readers have come to expect. From Hurricane Katrina to the latest presidential campaign, these cartoons provide an unflinching look at where we've been—just how bright we can expect the future to be.

What readers are saying

"Hail Tom Tomorrow!"
—Michael Moore
