Overview
The filthy, funny early work from the acclaimed illustrator and Bojack Horseman production designer
Before the critically acclaimed animated shows, the bestselling graphic novel Coyote Doggirl, or the humor collections Hot Dog Taste Test and My Dirty Dumb Eyes, cartoonist Lisa Hanawalt was a comic-book-industry sensation with her Ignatz Award-winning minicomic series I Want You. Hanawaltās outlandish humor and ingenious formalism are evident in the comics collected here. Her love of anthropomorphism and scatology are on full display, all lovingly and grotesquely drawn by Hanawalt in obsessive, unnerving detail.
The stars here are She-Moose, who we join sex-toy shopping, and He-Horse, who we learn mid-flight suffers from ornithophobia. The true star of I Want You may just be Hanawaltās hilarious command of the graphic listicle. āTop Causes of Freeway Accidentsā is a prescient pre-BoJack display of Hanawaltās love for all things equine. āThings We Are Sorry We Did Last Nightā includes the murder of all Hanawalt's Google doppelgƤngers. Whether sheās discussing the daily commute or masturbation, she packs each comic in I Want You with punchy cultural observations and sharp-witted reflections on typically taboo subjects. A master humorist, Hanawalt strikes the perfect balance between drawing the gorgeous and the repugnant, the fantastical and the lifelike, the bizarre and the hilariousācreating a deeply human experience that everyone can relate to.
