I Killed Adolf Hitler

I Killed Adolf Hitler
Trade Paperback
Fantagraphics



I haven't been reading much in the way of comics since I moved, but I saw this on the shelf the university library, of all places, and figured it looked worth a shot.

I don't believe I've ever read anything by artist/writer Jason before, so I can't say if I Killed Adolf Hitler is typical of his work. But I can say that it's mildly sweet, mildly sad, mildly funny, and mildly bizarre. It's set in a world of anthropomorphic animals, a world where murder-for-hire is a legitimate occupation, and a world where time travel has (secretly) been invented. To go into more detail would be to risk ruining the fun of the book.

If you chance upon it, check it out.
