The long-awaited collection of James the Stanton’s beloved Gnartoons comics is here! Slam a 40 with a skateboarding dog, light a cop car on fire with a herd of friendly forest critters, and eat a pizza brunch with a bunch of radical dinosaurs. Stanton’s trademark trippy humor wriggles and shines its way through each lushly illustrated comic vignette, now lovingly presented in a deluxe hardcover.

" Swarming with monsters and madness, this retrospective captures a volatile talent." - Publishers Weekly
The dense, adroit and textural cartooning of James Stanton, who often signs his work “James the Stanton”, has been a highlight of modern comics over the past decade. Stanton’s voice as artist, colorist and humorist is distinct: friendly, unassuming and deadpan as the visual and verbal curlicues of his work delight and astound the reader." - Frank M. Young, The Comics Journal
"I felt like my brain was melting a bit (in a good way) as I read, Gnartoons, and let its extreme weirdness wash over me. Stanton does a fantastic job compiling a wild body of work into this book. I’d highly recommend picking up a copy and preparing yourself for an equally deranged and exciting trip into some strange stuff.
5 out of 5 stars." - David Bitterbaum, Forces of Geek
