The Adventures of Unemployed Man
Read as Unemployed Man clashes with the formidable forces of economic evil including The Human Resource, Toxic Debt Blob, and Pink Slip.
It’s a story that may sound very familiar to a lot of Americans as of late: “jobless crusader Unemployed Man and his sidekick Plan B embark on a heroic search for work – and quickly find themselves waging an epic battle against The Just Us League, a dastardly group of supervillains.” From the creatively hilarious minds behind Goodnight Bush comes a new graphic novel chronicling the current economic landscape in the style of classic superhero comics. Read as Unemployed Man clashes with the formidable forces of economic evil including The Human Resource, Toxic Debt Blob, and Pink Slip.
Guests:
Gan Golan and Erich Origen, co-authors of The Adventures of Unemployed Man; also co-authors of the New York Times bestseller Goodnight Bush.
