Joe Bob Fights for the Drive-In is the definitive, oversized edition of Joe Bob Briggs’ foundational drive-in manifesto—reviving a long-out-of-print cult classic as a deluxe 9 x 12 art-book. With newly expanded material, brand new artwork, and new designs, this book speaks simultaneously to longtime Mutant faithful and new readers discovering drive-in culture as a vital, endangered American art form.

America’s most infamous drive-in movie critic brings his signature mix of razor-sharp wit, redneck philosophy, and B-movie obsession to the page. Bringing together material from across Joe Bob Briggs’ early drive-in years, this special edition draws from Joe Bob Goes to the Drive-In and Joe Bob Goes Back to the Drive-In, while also including previously uncollected columns that have never before appeared in book form.

Originally published across the late 1980s and early ’90s, this collection expands the original books with rare and hard-to-find writing unseen for decades, alongside brand-new illustrations by Battlepug creator Mike Norton, an all-new cover by The Goon’s Eric Powell, and an introduction by Wayne Newton.
