Summary: EXTRA! EXTRA! Read all about it!
Review: A riotous look at how the mighty fall: Greed, sex, perversion, and fraud. All the things what make people watch the news, and buy papers. The artwork and writing are top notch, as is the right amount of humor in each story.

Review: I was TOTALLY disappointed with this book. When I received it, it was a big comic book! Nothing but comic strips throughout, which is not what I expected. If you feel like reading the comics, pick up your local newspaper, otherwise don't waste your time with this one!

Summary: Concise comic book on forgotten scandals
Review: Vankin does a great job of concisely and completely dealing with long forgotten scandals, without too much crossover into his previous books (Conspiracies, Cover Ups and Crimes and 60 Greatest Conspiracies) and he does not pick easy targets. The Lockheed Scandal, the Wilson-Terpil Affair, several minor celebrity sin-fests, even something on tired old Watergate get comicized here. The book focusses on Hollywood, society, political and big business scandals, and so distinquishes itself from the other Big Books--on the unexplained, criminals, martyrs, urban legends, weirdos, losers and freaks. To coin a Vankinish observation, that list looks more like readers than topics the longer it gets. The first book in this series--from Factoid Books, a front for Paradox Press, which is an imprint of DC Comics--was the excellent Big Book of Conspiracies.
