The Big Book of Vice

A single-issue DC Comics one-shot from 1999, The Big Book of Vice presents a witty, illustrated encyclopedia of human failings, from gambling and gluttony to greed and lust. Written by Dave Stern with cartooning by Ivan Brunetti, it packs a dense, darkly humorous survey of historical and cultural low points into a single volume. Part of the publisher’s "Big Book" series of non-fiction comics, it stands as a compact, cynical tour through the history of bad behavior.
