OK, I read this, in its brief entirety at the bookstore. It's priceless. Satire at the level of "The Daily Show". Great illustrations, smart references, and a spot on parody of the original "Goodnight, Moon".

Should go nicely in the Bush Library. I mean, the Bush Shelf.
Cubby Hole?

My bias is showing, but if you don't believe we've had the most forthcoming, capable leadership the past eight years, and you can still laugh about it, this is well worth reading or gifting to a Blue-state buddy.… (more)

In which motivational speaker superhero The Ultimatum, fired by his ubercapitalist employers the Just Us League and deserted by his sidekick A+, who has to pick up an extra shift at his day job, reverts to his public identity as Bruce Paine and begins a desperate search for new employment. He quickly joins up with superheroes and sidekicks who have been similarly left behind by the economy and together they begin a crusade against various capitalist supervillains such as Laissez Fairy, The Invisible Hand, and Pink Slip. This is an extremely amusing book, and the characters' daffy names, invariably a sendup of some economic term or cliche, are not to be missed, and virtually every panel introduces a new one. Obviously this book is written from a point of view, but conservatives should relax, check their politics at the door, and enjoy the fun.… (more)

At first I was confused because Unemployed Man is called something different in the beginning of this graphic novel. Then he became Unemployed Man and it started making sense. This old-school type comic about the current economic crisis should be required reading for everyone in an Economics 101 class. Its very clever, succinct, and the plays on names are funny. I recommend this book to everyone!
