Hi, It's Me Again

The perfect gift for every single person on the planet.

Hi, It’s Me Again is the second cartoon collection from Asher Perlman, who NPR’s Scott Simon calls “one of today’s great New Yorker cartoonists.” A follow-up to his debut, the bestselling Well, This Is Me, Asher’s sophomore effort is the perfect addition to any coffee table, bookshelf, or nightstand.

Stephen Colbert calls Asher “very funny” and “keenly attuned to the inherent strangeness of existence.” Ben Stiller describes Asher’s cartoons as “the kind of funny that makes you question what it is to be a person.” And Judd Apatow says, “Asher Perlman can do in one frame what I need two hours and seventeen minutes to accomplish half as well!”

A well-proportioned blend of single-panel cartoons and longer narrative pieces, Hi, It’s Me Again has it all, from a vampire stress-drinking blood to a pinata pressuring her son into joining the family business.

A much-anticipated release, one thing is for sure: Hi, It’s Me Again is the best compilation of Asher’s cartoons since his last cartoon compilation, and it will certainly remain the best at least until his next.

“The profane amount of whimsy is only matched by the obscene level of hilarity. PERLMAN IS MEDDLING IN GOD’S DOMAIN.” (Patton Oswalt)
“In my fantasy version of myself, I see things that no one else can see. True things. I am brief and winning in the way I point them out and when I do this, I bring not only a smile, but can change the way another person looks at the world. Apparently, in my fantasy version of myself, I am Asher Perlman.”
(John Dickerson)
"I find myself wanting to live in the worlds Asher creates, until I realize they're not too far from the one I'm in (I own several genies). Asher Perlman is still my favorite cartoonist/modern day Sisyphus."
(Bowen Yang)
“Asher Perlman makes your favorite comic’s favorite comics.” (Nikki Glaser)
“Hilariously perceptive of life’s mundane tragedies. Asher articulates that voice in my head that is stressing over existential fears, social obligations and magicians, apparently. I feel seen and also ridiculed.” (Jordan Klepper)
“Asher Perlman belongs to the great American Tradition of the Deadpan: not only the classic cartoonists like Thurber and George(s) Price and Booth, but Buster Keaton and (stay with me) They Might Be Giants. The world is a big, weird place and it takes a special talent to manage it for us. Relax: Asher’s got this.” (Michael McKean)
"Asher Perlman cartoons are hilarious, fresh, and brilliant. He works with familiar cartoon genres (doctors, courtrooms, cocktail parties, death, etc.) and invents many of his own. I am in awe." (Roz Chast)

Asher Perlman is an Emmy award-nominated, WGA award-winning, Peabody award-winning cartoonist, comedian, writer, and actor. He is a regular contributor to the New Yorker and a writer for The Late Show with Stephen Colbert. He lives in Brooklyn, but his heart will always be in the Midwest with his family.
