A Mr. Fish Retrospective, Part 1 (Dialup warning)

[n2doc]

A Mr Fish retrospective. 2006 was one heck of a year and I am going to pick a few illustrators to showcase. Mr. Fish is the nom de plume of Dwayne Booth, and I think that few of you will be able to go through his work without laughing, crying, or getting pissed. He is perhaps the most fearless of the Toon artists. He is virulently anti war, and definitely not a fan of the DLC, centrist, republican-lite side of the Democratic Party. This isn’t all of Mr. Fish’s work, but is my selection of the most compelling/thought provoking/ jarring pieces. I am breaking this up into sections, and will post a new section each day, in roughly chronological order. Next week I will do the same with another artist.

You can see all of his work here:
