Playboy's New Kliban

Playboy's New Kliban (1980, Wideview Books) is a single-issue comic collection showcasing the surreal, whimsical single-panel cartoons of artist B. Kliban, best known for his iconic "cat" drawings. Originally published as a special Playboy Press release, it gathers his offbeat, often absurdist humor that defined a distinct visual style in the late 1970s and early 1980s. Though brief, this volume captures Kliban's distinctive voice and remains a cult snapshot of his influence on gag cartooning.
