I really had high hopes for this one too. It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s edited by Peter Conrad and here are just some of the names in it (don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t you hate it when people do that? You know that they\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re always leaving off the lesser-known people for no good reason): Sam Henderson, Neil Fitzpatrick, Jesse Reklaw, Keith Knight, Carrie McNinch, James Kochalka, John Hankiewicz, David Lasky and Ted Rall. It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s an OK book, but very few things stand out when you get done reading it. The Sam Henderson and James Kochalka stories weren\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t even funny, and those are usually a sure thing. Keith Knight, John Hankiewicz, Neil Fitzpatrick and Ted Rall were the highlights for me. Everything else was somewhere between pretty good and unremarkable. It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s cheap at $7.95 and you can\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t beat that lineup, but\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6 eh.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"template":"","meta":{"_wpsc_stock":"5","_wpsc_price":"7.95","_wpsc_special_price":"7.95","_wpsc_sku":"","footnotes":""},"product_tag":[],"wpsc_product_category":[4747,5651],"wpsc-variation":[],"class_list":["post-20219","wpsc-product","type-wpsc-product","status-publish","hentry","wpsc_product_category-comics","wpsc_product_category-peter-conrad"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/wpsc-product\/20219","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/wpsc-product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/wpsc-product"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/wpsc-product\/20219\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=20219"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fproduct_tag&post=20219"},{"taxonomy":"wpsc_product_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fwpsc_product_category&post=20219"},{"taxonomy":"wpsc-variation","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fwpsc-variation&post=20219"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
