Editorial Reviews

Review

"In a culture full of sick, twisted, perverted art, Red Meat is up there at the top--it's that good."--Matt Groening, Life in Hell, The Simpsons

"Max Cannon dances a twisted lambada of his own devising."--the New Yorker

"Max Cannon stands alone, offering genuinely funny cartoons that . . . expose American culture's seedy underbelly."--the Onion

"Unlike the vast majority of cartoons in America, Red Meat makes me sick in a good way."--Dan Piraro, Bizarro

"Red Meat . . . holds the terrible fascination of the dissection table, or of a roadside car wreck glimpsed out of the corner of your eye--except it's funnier. Max Cannon has an undeniable genius--just don't tell him where I live, okay?"--Tom Tomorrow, This Modern World

"Possibly the only comic strip in America that uses a chainsaw to tickle your funny bone."--Erwin B. Wallace, "The Mysterious Mr. Wally"

Blugeoning humor that beats your brains in!!!
Reviewed in the United States on May 20, 2006
Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase
I'm telling you Red Meat comics are the most sick, twisted, disgusting, and preverse cartoons you'll ever lay eyes on and that means naturally I think their great. I laughed so hard I thought I'd piss my pants. The poltically incorrect humor had me thinking "this is just F'ing wrong" while I had to catch my breath. Its so different from anything out there and the comic humor isn't "Beetle Bailey or Peanuts" type humor to put you to sleep. This humor doesn't tap you on the shoulder it bludgeons your head till your brains spill out. Get this piece of garbage it is gold and you'll be a better person because laughing is what makes you that way.

Brilliant, If You Have a Twisted Mind
Reviewed in the United States on November 9, 2013
Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase
If you've ever killed a mouse with a claw hammer or a pair of pliers, then you might like this. It's not for everyone, but if you have a sick and morbid sense of humor, then Red Meat is for you. The cartoons follow their own twisted logic, and end up in a place that most people wouldn't want to go. They are hilarious, if you like that kind of thing.
