Summary: What a great comic
Review: I first found the Red Meat Webpage from a link from another website. Once I found it I just kept on reading it. Milkman Dan and Karen are hysterical! IM me too because I get bored a lot. Thanx. Buy the book!

Summary: One of the best new cartoon collections I've found.
Review: I have maybe twenty books on my cartoon shelf. I have every Bloom County book ever made, all the Far Side galleries, a little Fox Trot, a liitle Calvin and Hobbes, all the most intelligent cartoons on the page. Red Meat fits right in. It plays on stereotypes and dabbles with irony and more; all the things you'd expect in a cartoon written by a genuinely smart individual are there. I'm eagerly awaiting the next book.

Summary: hot-buttered fungus
Review: I have never read a funnier comic strip. Not only is RedMeat sick and twisted, it is very clever and culturally diverse. I mean, Max Cannon covers everything from "Shaft" to Beethoven, sorta. And he's a really nice guy, too. Buy a T-shirt from redmeat.com. Buy this book. And bug your local weekly newspaper to get RedMeat weekly.

Summary: I want more Meat!
Review: I keep this book by my bed permanently. I reread it constantly. It's sick, it's twisted, it's hysterical. I love it. I wish it was longer. Hey Max, I want another book now!

Summary: Sick, filthy stuff!
Review: I made the mistake of flipping through "Red Meat" at a local bookstore, and I got a lot of strange looks from folks as I laughed and laughed and laughed like an idiot. And then my fiancee comes over to ask what's so funny and I have to show her a cartoon with Milkman Dan talking about establishing a strong "dairy presence" in the neighborhood. If you've seen that particular cartoon, you'll know why I was laughing so hard. You may not know why she still agreeing to marry me. Me too."Red Meat" is really sick, warped, violent, anarchic-- wonderful stuff. Just read it at home, when you're alone, and there aren't 50 or 60 witnesses around.

Summary: Oh, to be Milkman Dan for a DAY...
Review: I made the mistake of WORKING at a chain bookstore a few years ago in my hometown, and as I grew despondent as usual one day, my friend happens along with RED MEAT. The first strip I saw was the one where Ted Johnson's son needs "braces." That's all that need be said for those who've read the book, and for those who haven't, you'll doubtless soon find out. What made me realize this book was something truly special was that each strip involving the majestically nasty Milkman Dan was funnier than an entire Woody Allen movie. Buy it, cure it by hanging it out in the sun for a few days (or hang out in the sun yourself for the right mood), cook it, salt it, and READ it.

Summary: a story and a url
Review: I ordered my copy from Max Cannon. I received this reply: "Dear Harrison, Thanks for supporting RED MEAT ... each purchase keeps me out of the restaurant industry for another day. Oddly enough, Max Cannon." Nice touch.

Summary: If you ask me, Max Cannon is the best
Review: I started reading red meat in a weekly free newspaper from New Orleans called the gambit. Every week, I knew that there was going to be one side-splitting laugh on the comics page. Bug-eyed Earl, Milkman Dan and Ted Johnson are some of the best characters I've even come across. The strip looks so wholesome and neat but it is delightfully sick and twisted. This is great stuff, my only regret is that they're only 2 books to buy.

Summary: Ok, so I'm a sick, sick person
Review: I think Max Cannon must own the sickest mind in the western hemisphere, but Red Meat is definitely the funniest comic strip I have ever read. I've owned this first book for a few years now, but I've never run across the second collection anywhere but here on Amazon. Unfortunately for the powers that be, Red Meat will not be suppressed: I constantly have 5 different strips on my dorm room door.
