Dog Man is a new and typically unhinged comic by Dav Pilkey, the author responsible for the infamous Captain Underpants series. This is not for boring people. It is for people who really love laughing and want to laugh heaps and heaps.

Dog Man chronicles the bizzare adventures of a bungling canine law enforcement officer. It’s a full-colour production packed with action, hilarious hijinks, toilet humour and plenty of Pilkey’s much-loved Flip-O-Ramas. There are even instructions on how to draw all your new favourite characters and I especially loved the part where an army of walking talking hot-dogs try to take over the town.

A truly riotous read for ages 7 and up.
