Frumpy the Clown, Volume 2: Fat Lady Sings

Frumpy is not your typical clown. He doesn't do birthday parties, he isn'tin the circus, and he's never run for public office. Instead, Frumpy is achain-smoking, cynical anarchist who is more interested in sticking it to thestuffed-shirt establishment than making balloon animals or performing in thecenter ring. Whether he's filling in for the elementary school music teacher,dishing legal advice to the kids, or going paintballing with the guys, Frumpyentertains, enlightens and always surprises. Judd Winick's early newspaper worktells of one clown's attempts to assimilate into suburban life, or at least getsuburban life to assimilate to him.
