Silly Daddy: The Long Goodbye

For my money, one of the best books about parenting ever made. Not that it’s exactly about parenting, it’s just what happens to Joe when there’s a new child in his life. I also met him at a con years ago (I was wearing a King Cat shirt and he was good friends with the guy, so he called me over to his table). It’s a good thing he did too, because I had heard about his book but hadn’t actually read any of it before I bought that collection. This is a favorite of a lot of those Fantagraphics people too, so you know it can’t be bad.
