January 1995.  12 pages.  5 1/2" x 8 1/2".

front cover: by DVM
Actually the 2002 revised version, which DVM requested I post.  He redrew two of the floating heads: the big-brained one in the upper-left corner, and the robot one below it.

page 2: "Breakfast with Seinfeld" by DVM
Collage of cut-out Jerry, George, Elaine and Kramer dolls with alterations by DVM.  Elaine holds a bloody Ginsu knife and Kramer's severed head.  Includes an ad for an actual porno video,
Hindfeld: "Big boobs bobble as she leads him to her backdoor." 

pages 3-5: untitled collage by DVM
Clippings about homophobia, censorship, and
Beavis and Butt-head.  Includes a Dave Berg "Lighter Side" strip in which a mother asks "What in heck IS a fagot [sic] anyway??"

pages 6-7: "Cartoons I Drew When I Was 10 Years Old, for a Student Art Exhibit at the Local Mall, 1976" by DVM
Six cartoons.  Highlight: a mustachioed father jackhammers a cake his daughter baked.  For more of DVM's childhood art, see
The Puppet Show.

pages 8-9: untitled cartoons by DVM
Altered old Charles M. Schulz cartoons about Christian teenagers.  Blood, knives, a severed head, and a studded dildo.  DVM's recent critique of this piece: "Eeeee-yuck."

pages 8-9: "At the Comedic Reeducation Camp" by DVM
Below the altered Schulz cartoons, but not in quality.  Pol Pot-style treatment of stand-up comedians, improv members, ventriloquists, and morning deejays.

page 10: untitled strip by Bruno D. Nadalin
A guy with the face of a burn victim tells his problems to Mr. Frog: "My father makes me suck his cock, I've got no talent, I can't afford a Nintendo..."

pages 11-12: "The Nutrition Squad" by DVM
