Foolbert Funnies: Histories and Other Fictions

Frank Stack, a pioneering underground cartoonist, brings his gentle, absurdist wit to Foolbert Funnies: Histories and Other Fictions, a single-issue comic from Fantagraphics that collects his offbeat historical and fictional vignettes. Known for his long-running New Adventures of Jesus and contributions to the underground comix movement, Stack here offers a charming, low-key blend of satire and whimsy, illustrating why his work remains a quietly influential cornerstone of alternative cartooning.
