Review:

A quirky, brillant series of cartoons that most often feature a variety of insects and animals embroiled in some warped situation comedy. * TORONTO GLOBE AND MAIL * The simple line drawings- doodles, almost- get his point across, hooking deeply into the psyches of the susceptible. The natural order of things goes seriously awry, with hilarious results. * SMITHSONIAN * Fiendish ducks, misunderstood snakes, pointy-headed matrons with sequin glasses and hilarious captions all make up THE FAR SIDE, home of the surreal, the sick, and the irresistably funny. * WASHINGTON POST * Cartoonist Gary Larson carries the macabre to hilarious lengths. * WALL STREET JOURNAL *
