Book Review of The Argyle Sweater: A Cartoon Collection

The Argyle Sweater: A Cartoon Collection
AngelaWolf avatar reviewed Should fill the void left by 'The Far Side'... on
Helpful Score: 8


This book was quite a pleasant surprise. I was devastated when Gary Larson retired from writing The Far Side - but The Argyle Sweater just might fill the void. While I was reading and laughing, I kept finding similarities between Argyle and Far Side - the weird looking people, the bizarre, slightly sick, off the wall humor, the many hidden references. I would describe this book as a slightly edgier and more modern Far Side. I laughed out loud quite a few times and will definitely read more of The Argyle Sweater books.
