Customer Reviews

Oneof the finest funnybooks I've read in 30 years

This book provides an excellent blend of childlike whimsy and adult sophistication, and I laugh out loud whenever I read it. The interlocking stories are ambitious and a lot of fun to come to grips with, and there are more great moments than I can count. Highly recommended!

Me, me, me...

Jay Stephens, here. All these review spaces were blank, so I'm going to start the ball rolling myself.The ROCKABYE BOOK is one of my best collections. Nominated for three Eisner Awards and a Harvey. It stars JETCAT, who went on to become a cartoon star on Nickelodeon TV... now she doesn't return my calls... ;)Here's what THE COMICS JOURNAL said in their review, "If Hanna-Barbera delt with existential angst and deconstructionalism, the end result would probably resemble the Land of Nod, the new comic from Jay Stephens. I sincerely doubt, however, that they would do anywhere near as good a job as he has. Make no mistake, this book is quite an achievement."
