The New Yorker is a renowned magazine that receives hundreds of cartoons every week, and unfortunately, most of them are rejected. Despite the fame and reputation of many cartoonists, such as Roz Chast, David Sipress, Kim Warp, Sam Gross, Ed Steed, Emily Flake, Navied Mahdavian, and Mary Lawton, their work can still be deemed too weird, too naughty, too juvenile, or too dark for publication. However, there is a glimmer of hope for those who enjoy these rejected cartoons. Matthew Diffee has taken it upon himself to bravely sift through the circular file and rescue the best of the worst. In this revised second edition, he presents 297 cartoons, with over 50 new additions, ensuring that there is something for everyone.
The cartoons in this collection feature familiar set-ups, such as a couple in bed, a few people stranded on a desert island, or a doctor and patient in an examining room. However, what makes these cartoons truly unique is the unexpected twists and turns that lead to hilarious jokes. The humor is intelligent and witty, with a touch of dark comedy that will leave you laughing out loud.
Whether you are a fan of cartoons or just looking for a good laugh, this revised second edition of The Best of the Worst is a must-read. It is a testament to the talent and creativity of cartoonists who have been rejected by The New Yorker but still manage to produce work that is both entertaining and thought-provoking. So, sit back, relax, and enjoy the humor that only these rejected cartoons can bring.
