“The Gore of the Roses”

In "The Gore of the Roses," Dave Berg delivers another sharp, spot-on satire of modern life through a series of single-panel strips, poking fun at everything from office politics to sibling squabbles and the absurdities of modern relationships. With his signature wit and precise line work—both drawn and inked by Berg—this 1990 issue offers a sly, timeless look at human behavior, all framed by Jack Davis’s vivid, exaggerated cover.
