Almost Completely Baxter: New and Selected Blurtings

Glen Baxter's Almost Completely Baxter: New and Selected Blurtings collects decades of his deadpan, absurdist single-panel cartoons for The New York Review of Books, where his signature blend of non-sequitur captions and meticulous, old-fashioned drawing style has been a beloved fixture since 2016. This single volume gathers the best of his "blurtings"—those perfectly baffling scenes of cowboys, explorers, and schoolchildren caught in inexplicable, hilarious situations—alongside fresh work. It's the definitive introduction to a comic artist whose unique, quietly anarchic humor has delighted readers for generations.
