In the world of Rubes, cartoonist and "sit-down" comedian Leigh Rubin takes a close look at human nature in everyday situations—then pokes fun at them—in a way People magazine describes as "sneakily funny." Rubin handpicked 240 of his favorite single-panel cartoons to create The Wild and Twisted World of Rubes: A Rubes Cartoon Collection.
From twisted tales of Mother Goose to oddball Egyptian anecdotes, nothing is sacred in this "best of Rubes" collection, which features panels from the past 25 years that have never been seen in full color.
Rubes is one of the most popular single-panel cartoons in the country, appearing in more than 400 daily newspapers. The long-running, nationally broadcast program AgDay also features a panel each week as "Rubes Friday Funnies." Leigh's blog, Tales from a Twisted Mind, is a favorite on AgWeb, bringing tens of thousands of readers to the site each month. I calendars, T-shirts, and greeting cards are wildly popular, as well
The Wild and Twisted World of Rubes is available now from your favorite neighborhood or online bookstore!
