A second volume of viciously surreal cartoons from the hugely popular creator behind Mox Nox (also available).
Spanish cartoonist Joan Cornella's first book, the viciously funny Mox Nox, has struck such a nerve on social media that his Facebook page has garnered over 3.7 million fan followers, three-quarters of a million Instagram followers, and a quarter-million Twitter followers. A quick glance indicates why: Each single page strip is a wordless, full-colour, hand-painted marvel of the comic strip form.
“"Zonzo is, in a word, appalling. It's a wonderful reminder that comics art can still be uniquely and creatively obscene."”
Cornell�'s art is easily identifiable, featuring six panels, black humor, and often violent situations. His are the comics where a man shoots himself in the head so that his blood spatter forms a cool mohawk.-- "The A.V. Club"
Cornell�'s handsomely designed third collection of queasy tableaux overflows with effervescent depravity.-- "Bookforum"
Cornell�'s wordless one-page comic strips are uncompromising and brutally funny.-- "Broken Frontier"
If you're hoping for some comics that are as funny as they are disturbing and bizarre, look no further than the work of Joan Cornell�, whose drawings invoke a lighthearted sensibility and an extremely dark sense of humor.-- "Flavorwire"
Zonzo is, in a word, appalling. It's a wonderful reminder that comics art can still be uniquely and creatively obscene.-- "Vulture"
