Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com Review

Gahan Wilson's Even Weirder is the 16th collection of deliciously perverse cartoons by a modern master of the macabre. Although Wilson has carved something of a niche for himself with his offbeat novels, short stories, and children's books (!) it is of course as a "weird" cartoonist that he has made his mark on pop culture. Even Weirder gathers cartoons that previously appeared in such prestigious publications as the New Yorker, Playboy, Punch, and Paris Match. Filled with singing werewolves, gleeful homicidal maniacs, children-devouring aliens disguised as Santa Clauses, and pleasant professional torturers, the world of Gahan Wilson always induces both a shiver and a laugh. Anyone who grew up cackling over the classic, creepy work of Charles Addams or Edward Gorey will undoubtedly appreciate this material to the utmost. They will also agree with Stephen King's concise evaluation: "Genuine weirdness combined with wit and intelligence." --Stanley Wiater --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

    I have enjoyed the artwork by Graham Wilson.for year. It was nice to see this whole series of cartoons by him. You have to have a little weird in you to truly enjoy these cartoons. My only problem with this book is there were no cartoons in color, but still I laughed my way through them.

    Classic Gahan Wilson, but you figure if it was a sequel to Still Weird, it would also be as plentiful as the first. Still, it was a bit hard to find so I am happy it is part of the collection.

    CAN'T GO WRONG ON WILSON'S HUMOR

    ...for some reason this collection doesn't strike me as being as good as I remember his work to be. Oh, well.

    Some time ago Gahan Wilson's earlier work, mostly from the classic PLAYBOY'S GAHAN WILSON, was re-issued under the title STILL WEIRD. That book (STILL WEIRD) was fantastic, and apparently did well enough for the publisher to follow up with this book, EVEN WEIRDER. Unfortunately, the cartoons in this new book are largely re-settings of the jokes and ideas from his earlier works, and what is new in it is mostly lame.

    There are exceptions. The idea of a parrot being taught to say "Garbage in, garbage out!" made me and my family giggle. But overall I can't really recommend this book; there are other, much better books by Gahan Wilson.

    In the tradition of cartoonist Charles Addams but predating the TV show (whose theme song lyrics I have adopted) lies the Halloween ready humor of Gahan Wilson’s Even Weirder. Publish (In 1996) as a follow to the earlier collection Still Weird, this collection includes some new material but is mostly from earlier cartoons, mostly published in Playboy magazine. If your taste in humor leans towards the macabre Gahan Wilson belongs in your shelf.

    This is my third re read of GW collections. That labels me as a fan with all the built in biases the term implies. As of now I am the 2nd reviewer of this book and I have to agree that it is uneven. That said there were a number of cartoons that had me LOL as in out loud laughing. The waiter who introduces himself and then each item on the plate.. “I am Ronnie your waiter for tonight and this is Phillip your water…” reminded me of a steakhouse where the waiter held up each item on the menu and told us what it was; “ This is a potato.” We also laughed then. On the other hand the cartoon of an old man explaining to his very young, always on line son that “This is a book” is too close to real in a way not quite as funny. One has to admire an airplane passenger who has the sang froid to ask his seat mate:” Is this your first plane crash?”

    Mostly I enjoyed this Even Weirder and am not too weirded out to recommend it.
