Caliber Presents: Hybrid Stories

    (Caliber, 1992)
©1992 Dominic Bugatto

If you like your humor served dry and in small portions, Caliber Presents Hybrid Stories is the collection for you.

Hybrid Stories presents a cross-section of ground-level comics work by Dominic Bugatto from the early 1990s, many of which appeared in independent newspapers or E-zines. Bugatto’s graphic style changes from page to page, but all of his work is infused with the same sardonic wit. Features include Baboon Boy, The Dinner Guest (about a couple who invites a severed head to dinner), Mount Sinai, Role Reversal, Pick Pockets, and other miscellaneous stories. Many read like the very short, one-punchline cartoons that crop up in annual animation festivals, though in a few examples, Bugatto succeeds in creating a very atmospheric mood and sustaining it for several pages.
