Lest We Forget

Bernard Kliban "Whack Your Porcupine"

Bernard Kliban was published in Playboy in the 1970s, and eventually got into drawing lots of cats. He also did several great cartoon collections, including this one, "Whack Your Porcupine" and "Never Eat Anything Bigger Than Your Head".



The cartoons are funny and thought-provoking. These books aren't in print right now, but are dirt cheap on the used market. Highly recommended.
