What's Michael? Volume 6: Hard's Days Life

by Makoto Kobayashi

Described by Wizard magazine as Japan's version of Garfield, Heathcliff, and Krazy Kat all rolled into one,' What's Michael? is graphic fiction like no other, blending slice-of-life comedy, both subtle and slapstick, with off-the-wall flights of fancy. But whether the situations are believable or bizarre, the giggles are real and rapid-fire. From the horror of guests who won't leave to Michael's night on the town, all paths lead to laughs!'

Customer Reviews

Another Instant Classic!

Makoto Kobayashi hits another home run with "A Hard Day's Life", more tales of the adorable cat Michael and his humans. It's amazing to see the range of emotions he can illustrate on the face of a Cat. Truly a superb artist! This volume offers glimpses into the origin of "Catzilla", the frustrations of Bear the dog, and gives Yakuza M a little payback on the mischevious Michael. Highly recommended to anyone who appreciates GREAT art and a few good laughs!
