Ert!

    (Caliber, 1995)
©1995 Matt Feazell

Matt Feazell’s minimalist cartoon masterpiece Cynicalman returns in this diminutive compilation of mini-comics. Ert! (the sound of a vehicle stopping suddenly) collects many of Feazell’s one-page sketchbook comics, as well as the previously published adventures of Cynicalman, Antisocialman, Cute Girl, Captain Videotape, and even the dreaded Stupid Boy.

Feazell draws most of the episodes in a deliberate, stick figure style. This is not a reflection of his artistic abilities (Ert! also features pages drawn in a more conventional style from time to time). Instead, the stick figure renderings get right to the heart of the stories—and the stories can be terribly funny, reflecting Feazell’s alternately manic and blasé outlook on life. Wonderful stuff.
