Synopses & Reviews
It's the fifth collection of cartoonist Kaz's alternative comic strip,
Underworld, which has created a cult audience in over ten major markets for over a decade now in papers like
The New York Press and
Seattle Stranger.
For the first time, this volume will include an all-new 8-page, full color comic story entitled, "A Slice of Eye." Starring Salvador Dali, Kaz takes the painter's surrealist philosophies (paranoia critical method, edible beauty, etc.) and re-imagines them as a wacky screwball comedy. Kaz's use of Dali will come as no surprise to longtime Underworld fans whom have fallen in love with Kaz's Dali-like surreal and absurd re-invention of the classic American newspaper strip.
