I'm Gluten Furious: A Get Fuzzy Treasury


Darby Conley - 2016
    . .   The Get Fuzzy gang is back, and they’re leaner and meaner than ever. Bucky Katt (mastermind of mayhem) is on a steady diet of raw bacon, Beluga nut crunch, and carpa-cola in order to fit into his El Megaroid superhero suit—oatmeal cans are very slimming these days. The hapless and hopeless Satchel Pooch is in the kitchen perfecting his recipe for rubber chicken l’orange in a crayon/marker reduction sauce. And poor Rob, the vegetarian and ”owner” of the bunch, is scrounging for scraps in the midst of this gastronomical fury.   Delicious and satisfying, this treasury of cartoons features a healthy serving of favorites from Clean Up on Aisle Stupid! and You Can’t Fight Crazy. Don’t feel guilty for polishing it off in one sitting. Honestly…   . . . moderation is overrated.

For fans of supernatural comedies like Rosario + Vampire, Love in Hell is sure to entertain those who like their stories devilishly naughty.Life doesn't magically get easier once you're dead. Take Senkawa Rintaro, a recent arrival in Hell, where he's suspected to submit to torture in the name of atoning for his sins--not to mention to earn money for necessities like food, clothing, entertainment, and brothel visits. Lucky for Rintaro, every sinner has a demon charged with overseeing their redemption, and he's been paired up with Koyori, who's young, enthusiatic, and hot as, well, Hell. Rintaro endures torments of all kinds: he's flayed, boiled alive, and surrounded by untouchable, gorgeous demons. But while he has no luck getting them out of their cltohes, he may be able to help them get sexy new outfits--which sounds great, but the devil's in the details. And possibly worst of all, Rintaro learns how badly things can go when demons become too fond of the sinners they're supposed to be torturing!
