Wonder Woman’s Gail Simone shreds the sacred cows of comics in this first-ever collection of her humorous prose. In this mixture of new stories and classics from her long-running online column, Simone sends up websites, Watchmen, Whiteout, and Wizard, turning her sharp wit on characters, pros, and fans alike. This book includes illustrations. It also includes over 30 columns, freshly laid out, many with illustrations. Simone is joined by a number of her fellow comics creators, who provide illustrations or offer up their own Condensed Comics Classics. Says Simone: ‘This is a book that has been long-requested, mainly by myself, but also some random others, mostly demi-people who don’t get out much and don’t understand what real life is about. It collects some of my classic 'humor’ columns, ‘satirizing’ an ‘industry’ I knew ‘nothing’ about, as well as some columns that just plain ‘sucked.’ I like it and I’m sure you (or others less discerning) will, also!‘ Surety not legally binding.
