Drew Friedman's Misanthropic Funnies, featuring a foreword by cartoonist Noah Van Sciver, presents an omnibus of comic strips, cartoons, book/comic book/magazine and CD cover art, posters, ads, trading cards, sketches, character designs, portraits, and new and previously unpublished art. From RAW and National Lampoon to Mineshaft and The New Yorker, this anthology covers forty years of artwork, 1987-2027.

For years, acclaimed artist Drew Friedman has chronicled an oddball, alternate history of American pop culture, where forgotten character actors, old Jewish comedians, comic book artists, and liver-spotted elevator operators are afforded the spotlight over Hollywood starlets and heartthrobs.?Misanthropic Funnies continues Drew's life mission, with scathing comic strips such as "The 10 Least Powerful People in L.A.," "Shows You Won't Be Seeing This Year," "Retired Elevator Men on JFK," "From Hitler to Hollywood," and many others, and unforgettable characters such as Thunderclap E. Neuman, Cole Slaw, A. Schmuck, and Ed McLoins.
