'Van Tassel writes and draws like a prairie grass root system in the deep soil of weird America. Cosmic and funny and friendly and terrifying, like Cow Tools, or like a face in a tree trunk that blinks and says something. Katchor drives a Tuff-bilt. This book is killer, a triumph.' Kevin Huizenga. 'I ll be danged if these aren t some of the best comics around right now funny, literate, sensitive, weird, joyful... and Van Tassel has perfect cartoonist s timing. These things are great!' John Porcellino
