Six months on the New York Times bestseller list Featured on 25 best of the year lists Somewhere in my heart is a folder titled Things I Did Not Know I Wanted and it is full of Kate Beaton comics...
Step Aside, Pops is sure to be the comedic hit of the year: sharp, insightful, and very funny..
With a few carefully placed lines, she captures the over-the-top evil of the straw feminists in the closet, the disgruntled dismay of Heathcliff, and Wonder Woman\'s all-conquering ennui.
Now Beaton returns with a refined pen, ready to make jokes at the expense of hunks, army generals, scientists, and Canadians in equal measure.
It was an unequivocal hit with critics and fans alike, topping best-of-the-year lists from E , Amazon , Time , and more.
Beaton began her infectiously popular web comic, Hark A Vagrant, in 2007 and it quickly attracted the adoration of hundreds of thousands of fans.
Irreverently funny and carefully researched, no target is safe from Beaton\'s incisive wit in these satirical strips.
Kate Beaton\'s second D+Q book brings her hysterically funny gaze to bear on these and even more historical, literary, and contemporary figures.
Wells, the Black Prince, and Benito Ju rez burst off the pages of Step Aside, Pops: A Hark A Vagrant Collection , armed with modern-sounding quips and amusingly on-point repartee . -- New York Times Ida B. -- NPR Nobody\'s ever gotten so much comedy out of omitting punctuation.
Sharp, charming, and weird, Step Aside, Pops is a fine sampling of Beaton\'s work, and I can\'t recommend it enough.
