Critters #32

Critters #32 brings Fantagraphics' beloved anthropomorphic anthology to vivid, sun-drenched life with a cover by Ron Wilber that's equal parts strange and charming. A long-haired human figure leaps triumphantly above a grassy clifftop shoreline, dangling a feathered cap, while two anthropomorphic duck-billed creatures — one yellow and wearing jeans, one dark-haired in red — size each other up in the foreground. Inside, Stephen DeStefano pulls quadruple duty as writer, artist, inker, and letterer on "Parsley Humor," promising the kind of quirky, personal storytelling that made Critters one of 1989's most reliably fun anthology books.
