Cheech Wizard's Book of Me #[nn]

Vaughn Bodé's Cheech Wizard's Book of Me collects the irreverent wit and warmly anarchic cartooning that made Bodé one of underground comics' most beloved voices. The cover, rendered entirely by Bodé, features a rosy-cheeked, curly-haired doll-like figure lounging amid cluttered, cozy surroundings — books, a beer can, and warm firelight — paired with speech bubbles that mix cosmic musing with delightfully crude humor about cartoon messiahs and what happens when we "croak." It's a charming, oddball snapshot of Bodé's singular world, rendered in his signature bubbly lettering and richly saturated color palette.
